What does Black Metallic Rose / No 40: Oakmoss and Forest Florals smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters place it mostly in leisure and evening wear, with daily and business use not far behind. On character, feminine edges ahead with masculine close, so it sits between the two.

Rose and jasmine frame it as a floral, while oakmoss, patchouli and vetiver add an earthy, chypre depth. Mint, bergamot and aldehydes bring freshness, and clove and star anise add a spicy touch. Benzoin, vanilla and labdanum leave a sweet, resinous, powdery warmth.
