What does West Loop smell like?

The top opens with almond blossom, cinnamon and vanilla orchid, where sweetness and spice lead. In the heart, tobacco, myrrh absolute and French lavender add a creamy, resinous depth. The base of amberwood, tonka bean and Indonesian patchouli dries down into a woody, oriental sweetness.

Longevity is rated good and sillage strong, and most voters score both highly, though the number of votes is small. It suits men who like a rich, warm and sweet scent. Creed Centaurus and Pana Dora Imperial Wood have a close profile.
