What does Auspicious Dragon smell like?

Most voters recommend fall and winter, with spring further behind and summer getting very few votes. Leisure and evening wear lead, with daytime and night out close behind. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Votes on character are split closely between feminine and masculine, so it reads as open to both.

As a whole it smells sweet and floral: jasmine and Brazilian tonka bean give a soft, fruity warmth, and cedarwood steadies it with a dry, woody tone. Somalian frankincense adds a spicy, slightly synthetic sheen that keeps the sweetness warm. Its profile is close to Emil Élise Unfolding Echo and Art Brüt Idealvorstellung.
