What does B683 (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn, followed by winter and spring, while summer gets a small share. It leans towards evenings and nights out, though business and daily wear have their place too. Most voters read it as masculine.

It opens with nutmeg, chili, black pepper and saffron, a warm, spicy start. The heart brings cistus absolute, amber and musk, adding a resinous softness. Patchouli, sandalwood, ambroxan and oakmoss form a woody, earthy base. Fresh and leathery accords round out the character.
