What does X Myrrh smell like?

Longevity and sillage both rate as good. Most voters pick night out and evening, and while fall leads, it gets votes in all four seasons. Though unisex, it reads mostly feminine to voters, with a classic character also strong.

Jasmine, tuberose and magnolia form a floral heart, warmed and sweetened by Peru balsam and myrrh, with aniseed adding a spicy edge. Fruity and creamy touches soften it, leaving a powdery, oriental feel. Boucheron Boucheron (Eau de Parfum) and Zara Amber in Bloom have a close profile.
