What does Hombre de Palo smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though both ratings rest on only a handful of votes, so they are best read with caution. There are no season or occasion votes, so it can't be tied to a particular time of year. It does not lean masculine or feminine and suits either wearer.

Camphor and thyme give a cool, spicy opening. In the heart, rosewood and hinoki cypress set a dry, clean woodiness. The base adds oakmoss, myrrh, oak wood, Atlas cedar, costus and geosmin, bringing an earthy, resinous, slightly animal depth with a synthetic edge.
