What does Spicebomb Infrared (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evenings and nights out leading and leisure wear in third. Most voters call its character masculine, followed by modern.
It opens with pimento, grapefruit, red apple and red pepper, so fruit freshness meets sharp spice. In the heart, habanero chili, lavender and cinnamon leaf keep the spice going. The base of benzoin, cedarwood, amberwood and tobacco settles it into something sweet, woody and warm.
