Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it scores highest for evenings and nights out. Voters mostly read it as masculine.
It opens fresh and green with galbanum, eucalyptus and bergamot, then moves into a woody heart of cedarwood, patchouli and rose. The base settles on frankincense, sandalwood and Bourbon vanilla, leaving a spicy, earthy and lightly sweet resinous finish. Etro Shaal Nur and Marc Gebauer Berserker have a close profile.
