What does Ottoman Empire Part II (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with Jamaican pepper and cardamom beside jasmine and Indian, Bulgarian, Georgian and Afghan roses. In the heart, frangipani, Assam and Indian oud, saffron attar, cinnamon and nutmeg build a spicy, resinous depth. Myrrh, amber, sandalwood and oakmoss carry the woody, animalic tone into the base.
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick winter and fall, and evening or a night out; daytime and office wear are rarely chosen. It reads more masculine than feminine, with a classic leaning. Ottoman Empire and Ottoman Empire IV have a close profile.
