What does The Holy Prophet Elijah smell like?

Voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good, though the small number of votes means this view is not yet settled. Being unisex, it does not lean toward a masculine or feminine reading.

Cardamom, black caraway, black pepper and pimento build a spicy backbone, while neroli and ylang-ylang bring the floral side, myrrh and labdanum the resinous depth, and oud and vetiver the earthy foundation. The notes have no top, heart and base split, so the scent holds one dense character from start to finish.
