Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the small number of votes makes that picture tentative. It reads as neither strictly masculine nor feminine, so it suits anyone.
It opens with rose water and orange, a light, fruity freshness. In the heart, masala chai, curry and champaca bring a sweet, spiced warmth. Patchouli and amber settle it onto a woody, earthy base. Dior Midnight Poison (Eau de Parfum) and Guerlain Rose Amira (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
