In plain words

The main accords of Decision are amber and aromatic. It opens with Cardamom and Bergamot, reveals Frankincense and Juniper Berries at its heart, and dries down to Vanilla and Cedarwood. It lasts very long and projects strongly; people reach for it in spring and autumn, day or night.
