What does Luxor Summer smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though few people have voted, so that picture is tentative. It is described as a men's fragrance, and its cooling citrus character gives it a clear summer feel.

Citrus and fresh tones lead, with a sweet, gourmand side alongside. Rum and coffee strengthen the gourmand streak, while rose and musk soften it; sandalwood, gaiac wood and ambergris add a woody, slightly leathery depth. There are spicy and oriental touches too. Afford Without and Scentiments Ruden have a close profile.
