What does Alhambra smell like?

It opens with rose, bergamot and coriander, then deepens into opoponax, saffron and patchouli at the heart. The base brings oud, benzoin and myrrh, so the sweet gourmand tones rest on a woody, smoky, earthy footing with a soft powdery edge.

Most voters pick winter and fall, and favour it for evenings and nights out. Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Votes for feminine and masculine are close, so it sits in between. Etro Ambra and Guerlain Rose Nacrée du Désert have a close profile.
