Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though both ratings rest on a small number of votes. The warm, dense profile suits anyone who wants a scent that is noticed, and it leans neither masculine nor feminine.
It opens with gun powder, pink pepper and nutmeg for a peppery edge, softened by dried fruits. The heart brings bourbon whiskey, vanilla and black olive. The base settles into tobacco, resins, molasses and weathered wood, leaving a creamy, smoky warmth.
