What does Kalemat الكلمات smell like?

It opens with basil and frankincense; in the heart vanilla adds a soft sweetness, and the base settles into amber and oud. A woody, resinous frame carries an oriental feel, and the smoke never sits far back.

Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evenings and nights out lead the occasions. Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters read it as masculine, though many see it as feminine. Note 33 K@limat and Guerlain Ambre Samar have a close profile.
