What does Javari smell like?

Mint and sage give it a cool, herbal side, while cinnamon, nutmeg and pepper bring warm spice. Fir resin adds a woody, slightly smoky depth, and bergamot and lavender soften the sharper edges. The overall impression is spicy and oriental.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, rated a little above the midpoint, though only a few people have voted, so this is a rough guide. It is classed as a men's fragrance. Initio Oud for Greatness and Dolce & Gabbana Velvet Amber Sun have a close profile.
