What does Qandeel smell like?
Voters place Qandeel mostly in leisure time, nights out and evenings, with business use further behind. It is also considered suitable for daily wear. It reads as a women's fragrance.
It opens with cherry, mandarin orange, lemon and blackcurrant, a bright and juicy start. In the heart, jasmine and heliotrope add a soft floral touch, while salted caramel brings a gourmand sweetness. The base of patchouli, vanilla, white musk and cedarwood closes it creamy, powdery and lightly spicy.
