PowderyWhat does Pharaoh smell like?
It opens with cinnamon, cardamom and nutmeg, a spicy and sweet start. In the heart, lavender softens that warmth with a lightly floral, powdery touch. The base brings patchouli, sandalwood, amber and Haitian vetiver, settling into something resinous, earthy and woody. The overall character is oriental and gourmand, with a clear sweet side.
