Acqua di Sardegna Karaly is a unisex scent that wraps rose in frankincense, oud and suede, pulling the floral side towards the resinous and woody.

What does Karaly smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and spring, winter follows close behind, and summer is chosen least. It leans towards nights out, leisure time and evenings. Voters read it as both feminine and masculine, so it sits somewhere in between.

It opens with mandarin orange, violet leaf and davana, a floral and fruity start. Rose absolute, rose and geranium carry the floral side through the heart. The base of frankincense, oud, suede and sandalwood settles it onto a sweet, spicy, smoky and leathery ground.
