What does Papyrus in Acacia smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and autumn, then winter; it leans towards leisure, evening and daily wear, and also suits the office and nights out.

The scent reads as one whole: star anise and cypriol give a spicy, woody edge, with Java vetiver grounding it in earthy dryness. Orris concrete and Indian tuberose absolute add a powdery floral softness, while tonka bean absolute brings a creamy sweetness.
