What does Dubai Citrine smell like?

The top is bergamot, fir balsam, kelp and red berries, so it starts bright and fruity. In the heart, magnolia, lily, geranium and tagetes add a soft floral layer. The base of vetiver, amber and musk dries down warm, sweet and oriental.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small. With no season or occasion data, it is hard to say when it suits best. Byredo Bal d'Afrique and Khadlaj Karus Gold Absolu have a close profile.
