What does Riven Oak smell like?

It opens with bergamot, rum and pimento: the bergamot brings freshness while the rum and pimento add a spicy, faintly sweet start. In the heart, amber, oak wood and ISO-E-Super settle the scent onto a woody base. Cedarwood, musk and vetiver carry it through the dry-down, where the powdery and synthetic accords stay in the background. English Laundry Signature (Eau de Parfum) and Commodity Paper have a close profile.
