What does Encelade smell like?
Rhubarb brings a fresh, green and slightly fruity tartness, while vetiver and cedar ground it in a woody base. Leather adds a smoky, leathery edge, and tonka bean and sandalwood soften it with sweetness. Spicy and synthetic tones also run through the accords.
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, with summer well behind. It leans towards evening, night out and leisure wear. More voters find it masculine, though it reads as unisex.
