What does Spicebomb smell like?

Grapefruit, pink pepper and bergamot open cool and lively. In the heart, cinnamon, saffron and chili build a warm spice layer. Leather, vetiver and tobacco leave a woody, leathery base, while the fresh, gourmand and oriental sides of the accords stay present throughout.

Longevity and sillage are rated as good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is chosen most for evenings and nights out. Most voters call it masculine and modern. Königstein Live by Night and Reyane Tradition Insurrection II Dark have a close profile.
