What does Fan Your Flames smell like?

It opens with coconut and rum, a sweet and creamy start. Tonka bean and tobacco take over in the heart, bringing out the spicy, oriental side. Oakmoss and Chinese toon in the base give it a woody, smoky footing.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. It reads more masculine than feminine. Nishane Fan Your Flames X and Initio Side Effect have a close profile.
