In plain words

The main accords of The Library Collection Opus VI are amber and fresh spicy. It opens with West Indian Bay and Sichuan Pepper, reveals Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha and Patchouli at its heart, and dries down to Amber and Labdanum. It lasts very long and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
