What does Soir de Marrakech (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Lime opens with a citrus edge, then the heart takes over: vanilla and orange blossom sweeten it, jasmine carries the floral side, and patchouli adds a woody depth. The base of musk, sandalwood and amber dries down powdery, resinous and warm.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and night out are the occasions it leans towards, with leisure wear in third place. Voters read it as more feminine than masculine, though a fair share call it masculine. Gaultier² and Anné Pliska have a close profile.
