What does Oriental Touch smell like?

Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters recommend autumn, followed by winter and spring. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, and sits comfortably at the office too. It reads feminine.

Bergamot and ylang-ylang come first, with melon adding a fruity freshness in the heart. As it dries, sandalwood, tonka bean and vanilla take over, leaving a woody, spicy, gourmand sweetness. Nishane Santalové and Guerlain Plus Que Jamais have a close profile.
