What does Spanish Honey smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, and among those who rated longevity, high scores clearly outweigh the rest. The number of ratings is small, so this is only a first impression. It reads as unisex, leaning neither masculine nor feminine.

It opens with bergamot and honey, the fresh citrus softening quickly into sweetness. In the heart, jasmine, ylang-ylang, benzoin, oud and orris root bring a floral, powdery side forward. In the base, sandalwood, vanilla, amber and musk settle into gourmand, woody and animal tones.
