What does Blackbird smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters suggest fall and winter, though spring is far from absent. It leans towards leisure and evening wear, and with feminine and masculine votes close together, it sits comfortably between the two.

As a whole it reads as dry grass, leaves and fir balsam absolute, green and earthy. Himalayan blackberry adds a sweet, fruity note, while cedarwood and cedar resin build a woody base. Amber and musk soften it.
