What does Sova smell like?
Voters rate its longevity as very strong and its sillage as good. Most pick fall and winter, and it sits more comfortably in the evening or on a night out. Masculine and feminine votes are close, so it leans neither way clearly.
The scent reads as a whole: amber, vanilla, tonka bean and cocoa build a sweet, gourmand base. Pipe tobacco, castoreum and beeswax pull it towards smoke and animal warmth, while sweet clover, hop and hay bring a green, earthy edge.
