What does Dark Rum (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The top notes of plum and bergamot give a fruity freshness. Rum and leather take over in the heart, adding a body that is both sweet and leathery. The base of patchouli, amber and milk leaves a woody, creamy warmth, with a slightly synthetic gleam running through it.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and spring, with winter close behind, and it leans towards leisure and evening wear. Votes split evenly between masculine and feminine, so it reads as sitting in between.
