What does Mark Buxton smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and spring, winter is not far behind, and summer gets the fewest votes. It is chosen mostly for leisure time and evenings out. Voters lean towards calling it masculine, though a fair number find it feminine.

It opens with galbanum, mastic, black pepper and basil, a fresh, green and spicy start. Towards the heart, bay rum, leather and rose come forward, bringing a smoky, leathery feel. In the base, vetiver, labdanum and amber dry down into a resinous, woody trail.
