What does Silver Wood smell like?

The top is lavender, cinnamon and cardamom: the lavender reads green and fresh, while cinnamon and cardamom add spice. In the heart, fig brings a fruity sweetness and nutmeg adds warmth. The base of patchouli, Brazilian rosewood and labdanum settles into a woody, powdery, creamy finish, with a light gourmand touch.

Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate. Most pick winter and fall, then spring, while summer comes last. It leans towards leisure and evening wear, and it also works in an office. Most voters call its character masculine. S.T. Dupont Noir and Al Wataniah Massad share a close profile.
