What does Bizarre Brandy smell like?

Orange, ginger and cardamom open it with a bright but spicy warmth. At the heart, cognac, coffee and maple syrup build a sweet, dense gourmand layer. Frankincense, cedarwood and tobacco settle the base into a woody, resinous, smoky ground.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick winter and fall, with evenings, nights out and leisure the most-named uses. It reads more masculine than feminine, though it is classed as unisex. Hugo Boss Boss Bottled Elixir and Alcott Dark have a close profile.
