What does White Duke smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, spring comes next, and summer is rarely chosen. It leans towards evenings and nights out, and voters read it as masculine and classic.

It opens with bergamot, clary sage and Egyptian geranium. The heart of amber, Peru balsam, opoponax and thyme pulls it into a spicy, smoky sweetness. The base of frankincense, patchouli and benzoin leaves a woody, resinous trail. Ard Al Zaafaran Midnight Oud and Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan have a close profile.
