What does Follow smell like?

In Follow, amber, benzoin and tonka bean join the vanilla to form a dense, creamy sweetness. Coffee bean pulls that sweetness towards the gourmand side, while plant juice adds a green undertone. Spicy, resinous and slightly smoky accords round out its woody, oriental character.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters recommend fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. Votes for masculine and feminine sit fairly close, so it reads as properly unisex.
