What does Desight smell like?

It opens with spicy notes, tobacco and pink pepper. In the heart, tonka bean and vanilla sweeten it. The base of davana, cocoa and patchouli settles into a woody, earthy ground, with a synthetic edge running through it.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. It suits leisure, business and daily wear, and also gets votes for evening and nights out. Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille (Eau de Parfum) and Issey Miyake Nuit d'Issey Parfum have a close profile.
