What does Youxia (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

Yuzu, Sichuan pepper and ginger open fresh and sharp. The heart is crowded with flowers, among them geranium, jasmine, osmanthus, neroli and Chinese rose, while the chrysanthemums and hyacinth carry the green side. Sandalwood, Chinese oud and musk settle into a creamy, resinous, smoky warmth.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good, though few people have voted so far. It suits anyone, man or woman, who wants a spicy floral with a dark wood base. Jo Malone Dark Amber & Ginger Lily and Al Haramain Oudh 36 Nuit have a close profile.
