What does Colosso smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and projection good, though the number of votes is small, so treat this as a first impression rather than a firm measure. It is a masculine scent, and its warm, dense build leans towards cooler weather and evenings.

The scent reads as a single piece: spicy notes open it, and saffron and honey bring the sweetness forward. Leather and resins add a smoky, creamy depth, while patchouli and vetiver lay an earthy, woody base. A powdery undertone sits in the background. Its profile is close to Thomas De Monaco Raw Gold and Floris Mahon Leather.
