The Most Wanted Parfum for men

Mostly sweet and creamy, like vanilla pod or custard. Underneath that, dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer.

It opens on ginger, moves through woodsy notes, and settles on bourbon vanilla.

• ginger: sharp and fresh with a peppery bite, closer to the raw root than to gingerbread
• woodsy notes: a general woodiness rather than any specific wood

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
