What does Mayura smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong, though few people have voted, so treat that as a rough guide. There are no season or occasion votes to lean on. It reads heavy and dense, and works on men and women alike.

The scent has a floral and green side: ylang-ylang, rose and Indian tuberose mix with the dry greenness of oakmoss and vetiver. Underneath sit the animal warmth of amber, oud, civet and castoreum, the resin of frankincense and a light smokiness. The sweet, spicy note comes from the Indian spices, and the overall feel sits between chypre and oriental.
