SmokyWhat does Maté smell like?
Fig and mint bring a cool, green first impression, while maté and frankincense settle it onto a spicy, woody, lightly smoky base. The sweetness stays in the background and the freshness leads.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters split spring, summer and fall evenly, with winter far behind, and place it mostly in leisure, business and daily wear. Byredo Mixed Emotions and Firebird Cedar + Mint have a close profile.
