What does Bat (2015) smell like?

It opens with fruits, soil and banana, and the heart turns fig, tropical fruits, myrrh and resins into a sweet but earthy texture. Vetiver, sandalwood and leather lead the base, softened by tonka bean and musk. The overall impression is green, spicy, animalic and woody.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, while daily and office wear come last. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair share find it feminine. Zoologist Sloth and Zoologist Bat (2020) have a close profile.
