What does Prana smell like?
Prana's longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so this is only an early indication. Being unisex, it suits men and women alike.
The top has coriander seed, lemon and cardamom; the heart gathers jasmine sambac, tuberose and champaca absolute into a floral core. The base brings oud, myrrh and frankincense for a resinous, smoky warmth, with Himalayan cedar and patchouli adding woody, earthy depth. Fūm Winter Crocus and Profumum Roma Olibanum have a close profile.
