What does Collateral Damage smell like?

Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring chosen less often. It is most often worn in the evening or on a night out, and it also works for leisure time. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair share call it feminine.

A fruity, gourmand sweetness leads the scent. Cinnamon adds spice, rum and vanilla bring warm sweetness, and tobacco gives a woody, resinous depth. The overall character is oriental, with a slightly synthetic edge. Maison Noblesse Side Kick and Initio Side Effect have a close profile.
