OrientalWhat does Orion smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though the small number of votes means this should be read with caution. Voters lean towards evenings and nights out, then leisure time; daily and office wear trail behind.
It opens with red berries, Turkish rose absolute and Egyptian jasmine, a floral and sweet start. The heart brings patchouli, sandalwood, tobacco, saffron and oud, adding a spicy, woody depth. The base of cedarwood, animalic notes, musk, Bourbon vanilla and amber dries down warm and sweet. Birkholz Amber Intense and Kajal Jihan have a close profile.
