In plain words

The main accords of Favonius are woody and rose. It opens with Litchi and Incense, reveals Rose and Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha at its heart, and dries down to Agarwood (Oud) and Incense. It lasts very long and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
