What does Kalemat smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evenings and nights out leading and leisure and daily wear trailing behind. Masculine and feminine votes sit close together, so it reads comfortably either way.

It opens with aniseed and blueberry, fruity and lightly spiced. Rosemary and cashmere wood build a woody middle. In the base, amber, musk and sweetleaf bring a resinous, gourmand warmth, with a smoky edge in the background. Tangier Cafe and Deserto have a close profile.
