What does Benzin smell like?
Smoky notes, nuts, cognac and rum open it, with birch, leather and frankincense in the heart. Vetiver, musk, castoreum and amber settle underneath, giving a woody, animal, resinous base. A synthetic and spicy edge runs through the blend.
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards leisure time, nights out and evenings. Nearly half of voters read it as masculine.
