What does Yogananda smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with evening and night-out wear leading. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine; votes split almost evenly between the two.

It opens with caraway, nutmeg and frankincense, a spicy, resinous start softened by Indian oud and ylang-ylang. Labdanum, amber and Thai oud lead the heart. In the base, Siam benzoin, sandalwood and African vanilla set a sweet, earthy, leathery floor. Its profile is close to Bortnikoff Mysterious Oud and Sonoma Scent Studio Ambre Noir.
