From your scent profile
Vilhelm Parfumerie Smoke Show is a unisex scent that pairs a spicy opening of pink pepper and saffron with a smoky, resinous depth of rose, leather and oud.
Skunky's take: I wandered into a flower garden and I am not leaving.
How does it perform?
From 51 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, and reads mostly masculine, though many find it feminine.
Pink pepper and saffron open the scent. Rose and leather form the heart, where the floral side gets a leathery edge. Vetiver, oud and cedarwood leave a woody, smoky, resinous base.
