What does The Poet smell like?

Grapefruit gives the scent its crisp side, backed by green and aquatic accords. Beneath it, Atlas cedar, Indian sandalwood and patchouli form a woody frame. Omani frankincense and resins add depth, while tonka bean and ambrette bring a sweet, creamy softness. Casablanca lily adds a floral touch that rounds things out, and the spicy and slightly leathery tones stay in the background. The notes aren't split into layers, so the scent reads as one blend from start to finish. Anomalia Cérémonie and Amouage Decision have a close profile.
