In plain words

The main accords of Under My Skin are amber and warm spicy. It opens with Spicy Notes and Black Pepper, reveals Orris Root and Carnation at its heart, and dries down to Castoreum and Leather. It lasts very long and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
