Its longevity and sillage are rated good; the sample is small, but most voters score both high. It is made for men and women alike, without leaning to either side.
It opens with herbaceous notes, then Virginia cedar and patchouli set an earthy, woody heart. The base is led by tobacco, musk and vanilla: a spicy, resinous, oriental warmth softened by clear sweetness. Al Haramain Black Oudh and Xerjoff Laylati / Afgano Puro have a close profile.
