What does Marrakesh smell like?

It opens with lavender and rose; toward the heart, leather, thyme, cardamom, ginger and vetiver come forward, giving it a spicy, dry feel. The base holds chocolate, white musk, ambergris, patchouli and oud: the chocolate adds sweetness, while oud and patchouli deepen the woody, darker side.

Voters rate both its longevity and its sillage as good, though the vote count is small, so the picture is tentative. It can sit on men and women alike, and suits those who like a dense, leathery, heavily spiced profile. Electimuss Aurora and Montale Arabians have a close profile.
