What does Shahrazad smell like?

Its sillage is rated good; the votes are few, but half rate the projection high. There is no information on longevity, seasons or occasions, so nothing can be said about those. Being unisex, it suits both men and women.

The top is green, ozonic, peppery and citrusy, with bergamot giving a clean, aquatic lift. The heart turns soft and floral with jasmine, freesia and lily of the valley. In the base, vanilla, musk and ambergris sweeten it into a powdery, creamy warmth, with leather adding a slightly dry edge.
