Straight to Heaven from By Kilian, released in 2007 and composed by Sidonie Lancesseur, is a boozy, woody masculine scent. People describe it as sweet and woody in equal measure, with a minority also noting spicy, musky, floral and amber facets.

It opens with rum and dried fruits, giving a warm, boozy sweetness with a rich, raisin-like depth. The heart brings jasmine for a soft floral note, hedione for an airy, transparent glow, nutmeg for a warm spice and patchouli for an earthy, dark tone. The base is smooth and layered, with vanilla and tonka bean adding a creamy sweetness, guaiac wood a smoky warmth, Virginia cedar a dry woodiness, leather a supple texture and amber with musk a soft glow.

Most wearers report moderate longevity and a moderate to intimate trail. Votes favour autumn and winter and lean towards evening, so it suits dinners, bars and cold nights for someone who likes rum-soaked woods with a gentle sweetness.
