What does Shams Al Emarat Khususi (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The top opens fresh with lemon, mandarin orange and bergamot, softened by freesia and melon. The heart builds a floral base from jasmine, iris and violet, with patchouli and cashmeran adding depth. The base settles into a creamy, woody warmth of amber, cedarwood, sandalwood and musk.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters recommend fall and winter, though spring and summer still get a share. It is chosen most often for evenings and leisure time. Votes lean slightly feminine, yet it works as a unisex scent. Ard Al Zaafaran Ahlam Al Arab and Anfas Salam have a close profile.
