What does Freigeist Black Edition smell like?

Its longevity is rated good, while its sillage stays moderate. Those who rated it mostly read it as masculine. Bottega Veneta Bottega Veneta pour Homme Parfum and Laboratorio Olfattivo Daimiris have a close profile.

Cardamom and cedar leaf open it fresh and spicy. Wild jasmine adds a soft floral heart. In the base, suede and tonka bean take over: the scent turns leathery, woody and resinous, then settles into a sweet, gourmand warmth.
