Fortis, ‘the strong one’ is certainly an apt name for this woody scent with oriental leanings. A nice nutty vetiver / cedar combo is here pitted against a not-so-nice cherry cough-syrup
inflected oud base that smells very generic. Eventually, the rougher edges are rounded with a tonka/coumarin-vanilla-musk
chord, but the medicinal quality persists.
