What does Musc Sultan (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn, winter and spring, while summer lags behind. Evening and night out are the favoured occasions. Votes for masculine and feminine are almost level, so it sits comfortably on either side.

It opens with mugwort and lemon, where the citrus freshness soon gives way to a floral heart of rose and cypriol. The base is led by amber, musk and cedar, leaving a sweet, resinous, woody warmth. Animal and synthetic tones add a slight edge to the blend.
