What does Sarmassa smell like?

It opens with orange and lemon, while cedarwood gives the freshness a woody frame. The heart brings amber, vanilla, musk, spices and honey, turning the scent sweeter and softer. Resins and talcum settle in the base, leaving a powdery, slightly smoky trail.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, and the occasions are spread evenly across leisure, daily wear, work and evenings. Voters read it as more feminine, with a classic feel. Rochas Lui Rochas and Serge Lutens Bois oriental have a close profile.
