What does Cachemire Noir smell like?

Longevity and projection are both rated good, though the vote count is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. No clear season or occasion stands out, and the scent is aimed at men.

It opens fruity and spicy with ylang-ylang and cinnamon. In the heart, labdanum, orris and vanilla turn it powdery and creamy. The base of myrrh, benzoin and sandalwood adds a resinous, woody, slightly smoky warmth. Sweetness stays strong from start to finish.
