What does Nohiba smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is chosen most often for nights out and evenings. Voters mostly call its character feminine, though a fair share see it as classic.

It opens bright with bergamot, lemon, coriander and a little pink pepper. The heart softens into ylang-ylang, jasmine and rose. In the base, patchouli, musk and cedar leave a warm, powdery woodiness. Olibere Le Jardin de Madame Chan and Agent Provocateur Miss AP have a close profile.
