7.7/10

Very good

Strong category choiceA green‑fruity opening of violet leaf and raspberry with a warm cumin tint gives way to a luminous rose–lily–jasmine heart over cedar. It settles into amber, musk, incense‑oud, ambrette, and smoky birch tar. Community data suggests above‑average longevity (~7.6/10) and moderate‑strong sillage (~7.3/10); some retailer feedback describes the scent as intense and lasting through the day.
