What does Un Air d'Arabie Rose of Taif (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Most voters recommend fall and winter, and evening and night out lead the occasions, while office and daily wear get far fewer votes. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though these ratings come from a small number of voters.

It opens with saffron and Taif rose, and the heart holds leather, orange blossom and amber. The base of patchouli, castoreum and sandalwood sets it on a woody, resinous, faintly animal ground. The floral rose is balanced by spice and the roughness of leather. Dorin Dorin d'Or Rose de Taïf (Parfum) and Ex Nihilo Golden Wanderers have a close profile.
