What does Devil's Breath smell like?

The opening pairs the fruity brightness of blood orange zest and blackcurrant absolute with smoke. In the heart, patchouli, frankincense, tobacco absolute, black honey and coffee build a spicy, resinous warmth. The base of oud, Australian sandalwood, ambergris, labdanum and civet leaves a woody, leathery, animalic trail.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. It reads more masculine than feminine, though many also call it modern.
