Those notes read as spicy, amber, woody, musky, leather, smoky, the coarse families Xerjoff (official) cites. How it wears depends on your skin and the concentration. We only publish notes and accords we can trace to a source.

Xerjoff Golden Green is listed as unisex, marketed for anyone, which is how we'd wear it too. Fragrance has no inherent gender; the label just reflects how the retailer sells it.
