What does Ghaliyah Reflection smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though few people have voted, so those ratings are only a rough guide. The animal, resinous and oriental character makes it heavy and deep, and it can sit comfortably on either men or women.

Lemon, pink grapefruit and damask rose give a cool, bright start. In the heart, rose absolute, blackcurrant, osmanthus and Indian spices warm the floral side with spice. In the base, Bangladeshian oud, saffron, myrrh and castoreum deepen it into something woody and resinous.
