What does Al Dirgham Special Edition / الضرغام smell like?

The top is apple, clove and cardamom, a fruity, spicy freshness at first. Geranium, cinnamon and lavender fill the heart, and cedarwood, amber and vanilla settle the base into a woody, powdery, creamy sweetness. The gourmand and oriental sides lead, while the freshness stays in the background without disappearing.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evening the favoured time; spring works too, while summer is chosen less often. Maison Asrar Masterpiece and Maison Asrar Throne Eclipse have a close profile.
