The take

What works

●Smoky pepper and olibanum over a deep, rich vanilla
●A sophisticated fall-winter scent at a budget price
●Lasts on skin and clothes long after dinner

Trade-offs

●The opening runs harsh and synthetic before it settles
●Heavy in heat; a cold-weather bottle through and through
