What does Winter Woods smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick winter and fall, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair share find it feminine.
As a whole it is woody, resinous and smoky. Sandalwood, cedar and gaiac wood build the woody base, while birch tar brings the smoke and labdanum absolute and amber carry a sweet, resinous warmth. Oakmoss absolute, vetiver and castoreum add an earthy, animal depth.
