What does Potion for Him smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated as good by those who voted, though the vote count is small, so the picture is tentative. It reads as masculine.

The opening is bright and green, with rhubarb and elemi lifting it and black pepper adding spice. In the heart, frankincense and cannabis bring a smoky, earthy side while hazelnut softens it with sweetness. The base settles on cedarwood, amber and sandalwood, leaving a warm, woody finish.
