What does Cumbawa Wood smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, though these ratings rest on only a small number of votes. Being unisex, it doesn't lean toward either side and sits close to everyday wear.

The top notes of ginger, lemon and black pepper give a fresh, spicy start. Towards the heart, kaffir lime, ozone and ylang-ylang add a floral, green touch. In the base, vetiver, cashmere wood, patchouli and amber soften the scent and settle it on a sweet, woody ground.
