Coven

Andrea Maack · 2013

Green · Spicy · Woody

Eau de Parfum

Andrea Maack Coven is a green, spicy and smoky unisex scent with a woody, earthy build that suits autumn and spring best. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and spring, and it is worn mostly for leisure and evenings. Opinion is split between masculine and feminine, so it doesn't lean on one gender. The top holds whisky, labdanum and vanilla, with the vanilla sitting inside a resinous, smoky frame rather than turning sweet. Oakmoss and cedarwood form the heart, and galbanum and clove carry it down into a green, spicy, earthy finish.
