What does Haltane smell like?

Both its longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening or night out as the occasions; summer comes well behind. It is voted mainly masculine, with a classic streak.

Bergamot, clary sage and lavender open with an aromatic freshness. Towards the heart, saffron, cedarwood, elder wood and praliné take over, giving the sweet and spicy side its weight. In the base, leather, vetiver, patchouli and oud settle it into a woody, resinous, oriental mood. French Avenue Haydan and Byredo Accord Oud have a close profile.
