What does Firedance smell like?
It opens with a short burst of apple and lemon. In the heart, leather, cashmere and damask rose take over, and the floral side is hardened by leathery and smoky accords. The base of patchouli and oud pulls it toward earthy, resinous and animalic ground, with sweet and spicy tones running through.
Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small. Its dense, dark build suits cooler weather, and it reads as neither masculine nor feminine.
