What does Passage d'Enfer Extrême smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick fall, with spring and winter close behind. It is worn for leisure, evenings and workdays alike. Opinion splits on whether it reads masculine or feminine, with both getting nearly equal votes.

The scent is smoky, creamy and woody. Somalian frankincense and sandalwood give it a resinous, smoky depth, which Bourbon vanilla absolute softens and sweetens, while jasmine and lily keep the floral side in the background.
