What does Crying of Evil smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and night-out wear lead the occasions. It sits between masculine and feminine, with votes split almost evenly. Montale Oud Edition and Mancera Aoud Exclusif have a close profile.

It opens with tuberose, pink pepper, violet and spices. In the heart, rose, sandalwood and leather set the floral sweetness on a leathery, woody base. The dry-down of frankincense, musk, patchouli and amber turns resinous, creamy and warm.
