What does Unheimlich smell like?

Jasmine sambac and iris form a floral base, which cocoa and opoponax sweeten. Cardamom, cumin and red pepper add spice, while suede, birch tar and civet push the scent towards leather and animal tones. The overall impression is resinous, woody and a little earthy.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is worn for leisure, evenings and nights out. It leans masculine in the votes, though a fair share call it feminine. Verdúu Michael Sontag FORM and Liquides Imaginaires Belle Bête have a close profile.
