What does Desert Star / نجم الصحراء smell like?

It opens with bergamot, then moves into a heart of pink pepper, vetiver and cashmere wood, which gives it a spicy, slightly earthy and green character. The base of cedarwood, amber and white musk settles into a warm, woody-oriental dry-down with a soft sweetness.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. Its fougère structure and fresh-woody line read as masculine. Richouli Majesty and Lattafa Pride Art of Wood share a close profile.
