What does Amazonite smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good, though with few votes, so the picture is tentative. Voters rate it well for value. There are no season or occasion votes to lean on, and as a unisex scent it suits men and women alike.

It opens with cinnamon and nutmeg for a spicy start. Frankincense and cypriol bring a resinous, earthy heart. The base of black musk, saffron and oud settles into a warm, leathery, animalic and smoky finish, with a green accord keeping a faint coolness behind the heavier layers. Emir Dubai and Amouage Epic Man have a close profile.
