What does Imbue smell like?

Violet leaf and bergamot give the top a citrusy, green freshness. In the heart, myrrh, black tea, cinnamon and pimento bring spice that the sweetness softens. The base of musk, olive wood and tobacco leaf sets it on a woody footing.

Longevity and sillage are rated as good. Most voters pick spring and fall, and leisure, daily wear and business are the occasions named most often. It reads more masculine in the votes, though some find it feminine. Gucci pour Homme II (Eau de Toilette) and Mirko Buffini Mu have a close profile.
