Gris Charnel feels like a luxurious wool scarf in a cold wind. It is spicy, figgy but the most prominent note I get is the sandalwood base. Though it remains, spicy, it develops into quite the lactonic wear. I wouldn’t wear this in the early beginnings of fall, where the sun still shines, because if you’re sensitive to fragrance, you might become nauseous. It shines best in the cold, really crisp cold or for rainy days. It has a cocooning effect. I do think that it is unisex even if leaning a tzd feminine. I have to say though that I now much more prefer its extrait counterpart which I find more provoking and interesting
