What does Sultan Safran smell like?

It opens with green mandarin orange and bergamot, a fresh citrus start. The heart builds a floral base of jasmine, lily of the valley, rose and saffron blossom, warmed by nutmeg and cinnamon leaf. The base of cedar, sandalwood and patchouli adds a woody, earthy depth, and musk softens it.
