What does Liwan / ليوان smell like?

It opens bright and fruity with bergamot, grapefruit and pineapple, while pink pepper adds a light spice. In the heart, caramel, osmanthus and ylang-ylang bring a sweet, floral softness, and rosemary keeps a fresh edge on it. The base leans on patchouli, leather, amber and Haitian vetiver, with musk pulling it together.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring and fall, though summer is not far behind. It suits leisure, nights out and daily wear. Most voters read it as masculine, and some call it modern. Bond No. 9 Sutton Place and Sphinx Night on the Nile have a close profile.
