What does Copāla | Xinú (no. 2) smell like?

Copal resin and mesquite tree give it a resinous, woody core, Mexican vanilla softens and sweetens it, and pink pepper adds a spicy warmth. It reads as one smooth whole rather than separate stages.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evenings, leisure time and nights out leading the occasions. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so it sits comfortably on either side. Demeter Fragrance Library Mesquite and Majouri Silky Sandalwood have a close profile.
