What does Golden Wood smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall, then spring, and few choose summer. It leans towards leisure and evenings out, and works at the office too. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine.

It opens with mandarin orange, elemi resin and barley malt, fresh, citrusy and lightly sweet. Cabreuva, oak and beeswax form a woody heart. The base of amber, roasted tonka bean and birch settles into something resinous, warm and sweet.
