What does Resplendent smell like?

The top notes of frankincense, absinth and saffron open resinous, spicy and faintly smoky. In the heart, Chinese osmanthus, Egyptian jasmine and Indian tuberose bring out the floral side. Tonka bean, amber and labdanum sweeten the base, which settles into a warm, gourmand, oriental finish.

Electimuss Puritas and The Dua Brand Crater have a close profile.
