What does Typewriter smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, spring comes second and summer trails. Leisure, evening and night out lead the occasions, while business and daily wear get fewer votes. Most voters read it as masculine, though some call it classic.

As a whole it reads leathery, woody and smoky. Leather, cistus and castoreum build an animal, resinous core, and ink and papyrus pull it in a dry, austere direction. Virginia cedar, amberwood and Indonesian patchouli add an earthy, woody base. Dryness outweighs any sweetness.
