What does Fairouz (Perfume Oil) smell like?

Ylang-ylang and jasmine open it, with Bulgarian rose in the heart. The floral start settles over time into amber, sandalwood and musk, turning sweeter and landing in a powdery, woody warmth. The animal and smoky accords soften the flowers, while the resinous side weighs the whole down.

Its longevity is rated very strong; most voters score it high, though the number of votes is small. As a perfume oil, a small amount goes a long way. The unisex character sits evenly on both men and women. Elizabeth Taylor Passion (Eau de Toilette) and Avon Night Musk have a close profile.
