What does Dark Light smell like?

Amber, opoponax and myrrh build a warm, resinous frame, while Bourbon vanilla and musk soften it into something creamy and powdery. Angelica and aldehydes loosen the density a little, and the spicy and leathery sides stay in the background.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it fits evenings and nights out best. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so it sits comfortably between the two. Xerjoff Amber Star and Prada Day for Night have a close profile.
