What does Dry Magnolia smell like?

It opens with neroli, pink pepper, aniseed and magnolia. In the heart, Bulgarian rose, green tea, immortelle, cocoa and tonka bean soften the floral side with green and gourmand touches. The base of vanilla, cedar, frankincense, oud and amber dries down into a spicy, powdery, resinous and slightly smoky warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall, winter and spring, with summer chosen less often. It suits daytime, the office or an evening out. It has been discontinued; perfumes with a close profile include Carolina Herrera CH Men Pasión and Amouage Epic 56 Woman.
