What does Abundance V.8 smell like?

Bitter orange and pink pepper come first, with Somalian frankincense adding a resinous shadow. In the heart, Australian flame tree brings a soft floral note. The base is dominated by Australian and Indian sandalwood, Siam benzoin and Akigalawood®, leaving a woody, creamy, slightly smoky warmth.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by winter, and it leans towards leisure and evening wear. Feminine and masculine votes are nearly even, so it sits genuinely in between.
