What does Kingdom (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens with a fresh citrus layer of orange, mandarin orange, bergamot and mint. Toward the heart, jasmine and rose come forward, while rhubarb and ginger add a spicy, green edge. In the base, musk, amber and oakmoss settle the scent onto a powdery, earthy footing.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans toward evenings and nights out. Most read it as feminine. Perfumes with a close profile include Molinard Chypre d'Orient and Jean Patou Sublime (Eau de Parfum).
