What does Kilim (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Floral and fruity sweetness leads, with apple, raspberry and apricot sitting beside the flowers. Benzoin and amber add a creamy, resinous softness, while cedar and patchouli bring a woody, earthy depth. Clove adds a light spice, and tobacco stays in the background.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend fall and spring, with winter close behind. It gets votes for leisure, evening, daily wear and the office. Most voters read it as feminine, and some call it classic. Xerjoff Richwood and Prada Some Velvet Morning have a close profile.
