What does Inquisitor (2015) (Perfume) smell like?

The notes read as one whole: frankincense, myrrh and labdanum sit over wood smoke and fire, while oud and black leather harden that smoky line. Amber and benzoin bring sweetness, and patchouli and vetiver lay down an earthy base. The accords show sweet, spicy, woody, animal and leathery sides together.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays on the skin for a long time without reaching far. Its dense, dark character suits men and women alike. Its profile is close to Juicy Couture Dirty English and Dior Leather Oud.
