What does Tony Iommi Monkey Special smell like?
Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evenings or nights out; summer and daytime wear are rarely chosen. Nearly half of voters read it as masculine, though it is a unisex scent.
It opens with passion fruit, Calabrian bergamot and rum, with Bulgarian geranium adding a cooler edge. The heart brings Singapore patchouli, cinnamon, leather and rose, with a smoky, leathery tone leading. In the base, vanilla, caramel and tonka sweetness is softened by Australian sandalwood and ambergris. The Dua Brand Rockstar and French Avenue Cocoa Morado have a close profile.
