What does Pathos smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good by those who voted, and the scent has a heavy, dense build. Its sweet, spicy, oriental character suggests it is easier to carry in cooler weather.

It opens with ylang-ylang, frankincense and saffron, a floral and spicy start. In the heart, caramel, cinnamon, ambergris and suede push it towards a gourmand, creamy side. In the base, tonka bean, oud, vanilla and sandalwood settle the sweetness onto a woody, powdery footing. Xerjoff Ouverture and Amouage Guidance (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
