What does Graphite smell like?

Most voters pick autumn, followed by winter and spring; summer gets little support. It is named most for leisure and daytime, with evening and office wear also fitting. Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters read it as masculine, though it works as unisex.

Woods, graphite and chalk give it a dry, mineral feel. The fresh, green side stays light, while spicy, resinous and earthy accords sit underneath. Smoke and leather stay in the background and firm up the woody body. Lvnea L'Étranger and Linari Fuoco Infernale have a close profile.
