Pungent opening settles into a smoky scent.
Herbaceous, bitter tobacco, boozy sweetness.
Transports you to a savanna; warm earth, dry grass.

@Longevity it went straight to the wishlist!
In the air it smells like tobacco leaf or a strong oolong tea.

@Ceesie You can think of it as a reference point for dry and earthy tobacco.
Gorgeous masculine stuff with just enough sweetness to make it wearable.

I think this and Unutamam are tobacco enjoyers dreams, just completely perverse and absolute in their borderline depictions of the note. Especially Rhinoceros is one of those scents that I seriously have to be in the mood for because it's so unbelievabely assertive and dominant with its piercing nature.

Interesting.
To me this is VERY piercing initially, as the bitterness of coffee, basil and all the spices hit you at once.
If Prin’s intention was to make it as scary as a rhino charging at you, he certainly suceeded.
HOWEVER
The smokiness I get here is more on the earthy side, with boozy and hay-like sweetness.
Still bitter, but overall a warm and pleasant drydown.
Unutamam is like a burnt cigar to my nose, so Rhino takes the cake as far as wearability goes.
