What does Festivus with the Mobster smell like?

Egg-nog and spices add a soft, creamy edge to the whisky and rum. The notes have no top, heart and base split, so the scent runs as one piece, fruity and gourmand in its sweetness. Woody and smoky accords stay in the background and keep it from turning heavy.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick winter and fall, and it is worn mostly for leisure, evenings and nights out. More voters call it feminine than masculine, though a good share see it the other way. Nishane Fan Your Flames and Sospiro Il Padrino have a close profile. It has been discontinued.
