What does Maderas de Oriente Oscuro smell like?

The notes read as one whole: cherry, caramel, honey and brown sugar build the sweetness, while sandalwood, gaiac wood, patchouli and oud give a woody, earthy, smoky base. Clove and aniseed add spice, amber brings resinous warmth, and a leathery edge stays in the background.

Most voters pick winter and fall, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong. Voters most often call it masculine, though it is presented as unisex. Slumberhouse Jeke (2008) and Farmacia SS. Annunziata Tabacco d'Autore have a close profile.
