What does Shillong Summer Nights smell like?

It opens with bergamot, hatkora lemon, neroli and damask rose, while lavender and elemi resin pull that freshness towards green and resinous. In the heart, star anise, cardamom, cumin and cinnamon bring a spicy warmth, and jasmine sambac and tuberose add a creamy floral softness. The base settles on vetiver, sandalwood and cedarwood, with labdanum, oud and Omani green frankincense giving the woods a resinous depth.
