Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.

What does psy_cou smell like?
Most voters pick fall and spring, and leisure and daily wear lead the occasions. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Votes split almost evenly between feminine and masculine, so it leans neither way.
A fresh, green feel runs through it, with saffron, cardamom, coffee and juniper berry forming a spicy core. Frankincense, oud and Ecuadorian palo santo ground it in woody, smoky tones, while coumarin adds a sweet, synthetic softness.
