What does Orm smell like?

Most voters pick autumn and winter for Orm, though spring is not far behind. Evening, leisure and night out lead the occasions, while business wear is chosen least. Longevity and sillage both rate as good. Votes split almost evenly between masculine and feminine, so it doesn't lean hard either way.

The top opens with pine needle, corn mint and birch, with pepper adding spice. In the heart, fir balsam, cedar and kelp give a resinous, green forest feel, softened a little by honey. The base of driftwood, leather, hay and ambergris settles into an earthy, animal warmth.
