What does Alf Zahra smell like?
It opens with aldehydes, coriander, angelica root and orange blossom. In the heart, jasmine, iris, rose and geranium lead, while lily of the valley softens the floral line a little. At the base, musk, vetiver, moss and patchouli build a dry, earthy ground, and civet and sandalwood pull it toward a warm, oriental tone.
Voters rate its longevity and sillage as strong, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. Its full, pronounced character leans feminine. Aigner Explosive and Genny Genny have a close profile.
