What does King of Summerisle smell like?

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, and most voters score both high, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It has been discontinued.

The notes read as a single whole: cade juniper, birch tar and smoke form a hard, smoky base. Tobacco absolute, roasted coffee, whisky and castoreum push it towards an animal, earthy warmth, while caramel, chocolate and plum add a touch of sweetness and stay in the background.
