What does Queen of Spades smell like?

Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong, so it stays noticeable for a long time after you spray it. There are no season or occasion votes to lean on, but it reads as genuinely unisex rather than leaning to either side.

Bergamot, lemon and neroli give a bright, fresh start that aldehydes and rose soften. In the heart, coriander, nutmeg and frankincense add a spicy warmth, iris brings the powdery side and cedar supplies a woody frame. As it dries, vanilla, sandalwood and musk turn it creamy, with patchouli adding a faintly earthy weight underneath. Ramón Monegal Siesta and Ex Nihilo Honoré Delights have a close profile.
