What does Sardonyx 2 / Сардоникс 2 smell like?
Its notes read as one whole rather than a top, heart and base. Leather carries the weight, floral notes soften it, and woody notes lay a warm ground underneath. Among the accords, floral, green, spicy and woody sit beside oriental, resinous and smoky tones. The leathery and animal streak gives it a dry, chypre-like air. Overall it leans dark, heavy and a little severe.
