What does Pumpkin Spice smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters find the staying power high, though the number of votes is small, so treat that as tentative. There are no season or occasion votes, but the sweet, spiced character suggests cooler days. It is unisex.

The notes read as one whole rather than in stages: pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg and pimento give a spicy warmth, while coffee and espresso add a slightly bitter edge. Vanilla, tonka bean and cream soften it into something sweet, with sandalwood as a woody base. Fresh, powdery and creamy accords round it out.
