What does Chypre Narcotique Attar smell like?

The top notes are pink pepper, yuzu, jasmine sambac and lily of the valley, so it starts bright, citrusy, fresh and green. Tuberose, rosemary blossom and jonquil form a floral heart. In the base, castoreum, Papua oud, vetiver, sandalwood and oakmoss set the chypre on a woody, earthy floor.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though the vote count is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It sits between floral and woody and reads as suitable for men and women alike. Sisley Eau de Campagne and Chanel Cristalle have a close profile.
