What does Chen Xiang smell like?

The notes read as one whole: white tea and blue lotus bring a gentle floral note, while the oud lays down a woody, smoky base. Mongolian deer musk and ambergris add an animal, resinous warmth, and the spicy, oriental side stays in the background.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without disappearing. The votes are few, so this is only a rough guide. The scent has a dense, oriental character that suits both men and women. Abdul Samad Al Qurashi Excellent Amber and Arte Profumi Harem Soirée have a close profile.
