What does Amber Woods smell like?

The opening pairs the coolness of mint and lemon with the spicy warmth of nutmeg. In the heart, lavender, saffron and black pepper bring a green, floral side while keeping the spice. The base of patchouli, nagarmotha and sandalwood adds an earthy, resinous and slightly leathery woodiness, with a sweet note staying in the background.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though few people have voted, so treat that as a rough guide. Value for money scores high. It reads masculine. Odin New York 12 Lacha and Atelier Flou Hora Fugit have a close profile.
