What does Imperial Malt smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. There are no season or occasion votes, so it is hard to say when it suits best. Being unisex, it can be worn by anyone.

It opens with coconut water, brown sugar and dark chocolate, then turns sweeter in the heart with vanilla, plum and malt whisky. The base of vetiver, leather, patchouli and firewood adds an earthy, spicy, smoky footing. The fruity and gourmand side dominates, with a synthetic sheen alongside.
