Scent Depot Score™
Very good
Strong category choiceOpening features a fizzy warm-spicy lift (pink pepper, elemi, and violet) that some describe as “cola-like,” moving into a resinous-spiced heart (myrrh, cedar, tonka) and settling into a woody-ambered base with patchouli, oud, musk, and oakmoss. Generally cite moderate to good performance, with some noting strong presence and others calling it decent but not a powerhouse; expect best results in cool to cold weather.
