What does Lonesome Rider smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall, followed by winter and spring, and it leans towards evening and leisure wear. Most voters read it as masculine, though a sizeable share finds it feminine.

It starts with a fresh citrus lift from bergamot and grapefruit, with pepper and clove adding spice. In the heart, orris root, rose, castoreum and leather take over, with the floral side staying in the background and softening the leathery character. The base of vetiver, sandalwood and cedarwood gives it a dry, smoky, woody floor.
