What does Brokilän smell like?

In Brokilän, hemlock fir needle and larch cone give a cool, green sharpness. Sandalwood and Vietnamese oud settle it onto a woody, earthy base, while momi and sandarac add a resinous, lightly spicy tone. The overall impression is fresh and dry, far from sweet.

Voters find the longevity good and the sillage moderate. Most pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind, and leisure and evening wear lead. It leans masculine but reads as unisex. Pineward Snoqualmie and House of Matriarch Future's Past have a close profile.
