What does 8 - Mystic Warrior smell like?

Longevity and projection are both rated good, though the number of ratings is small, so that picture is tentative. Its sweet, spicy and smoky character makes it easier to wear in cooler weather and in the evening. It reads neither clearly masculine nor clearly feminine.

It opens with caramel, coriander and frankincense, softened by ambrette. Toward the heart, honey, cedarwood and clary sage take over, with the ambre accord adding warmth. The base of vanilla, sandalwood, musk and balsam dries down creamy and gourmand, while cistus brings an animal, resinous edge.
