It's based on the scent of the original Burma Shave cream.. From the website:

Scent Profile: Talc, Cardamom, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Kephalis, Sandalwood, Cedar, Nutmeg, Black Pepper, Oakwood and Oakmoss.

My take: Can't comment on its accuracy (never tried Burma Shave) but the soap and splash have a nice clean, barbershop, quasi-astringent quality that I find very nice.

Scent On Paper: Leather, Tobacco, Amber, Chestnut, Almond, Chai, Cognac, Walnut, Vanilla.

Scent In Practice: A Leathery, Nutty, Slightly Boozy Sorta Thing With A Really Bizarre Hint Of Mustard Towards The End Of The Sniff.

Verdict: Eh, This One’s Okay, I Gotta Be In The Mood For It.
