What does Molotov Cocktail smell like?

Both its longevity and sillage are rated very strong, and every voter scores them high, though the number of votes is small, so the figures are only a rough guide. There is no season or occasion information, and it reads as unisex rather than leaning masculine or feminine.

The notes read as one whole: metallic notes, iodine, blood, sweat and smoke set a harsh, animalic ground. Vodka, pepper and gun powder add a spicy, burning edge, while musk softens it slightly. Earthy and leathery tones sit among the accords.
