What does No. 05: Black + White Pepper smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, and every voter rates the longevity as high, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough picture. With no season or occasion votes, there is little to say about when to wear it; it suits both men and women.

Black pepper and white pepper form the spicy backbone, while clove and mace add warmth. Galbanum and French oakmoss bring a green, earthy edge, and tobacco adds a smoky note. Benzoin and tonka bean soften the sharpness with a resinous sweetness.
