What does Rum Knuckles smell like?
It opens with black plum, leather and geranium, where fruity sweetness meets a leathery edge. The heart of cardamom, frankincense, red rose and saffron adds a spicy, resinous and floral layer. The base of benzoin, vanilla, amber and oud settles into a gourmand, smoky and woody warmth.
Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small. Voters pick it mostly for evening, leisure and nights out, with daytime wear trailing behind. It is classed as a men's fragrance. Brogi Not Usual and Lattafa Ameer Al Oudh Intense Oud have a close profile.
