What does Phileas (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Phileas lasts strongly and projects well. Most voters pick autumn, followed by spring and winter, and it is worn by day and in the evening alike. Most voters read it as masculine, with a good share calling it classic.

It opens fresh with green notes, juniper, aldehydes, bergamot and lemon. The heart is led by pine needle, patchouli, vetiver, cinnamon and cedar, with jasmine and carnation softening the spicy woods. In the base, labdanum, leather, oakmoss, amber and tobacco settle into a smoky, earthy and animalic dry-down.
