What does The Souk smell like?
Bergamot, lime and orange give the top a fresh, fruity start. Cinnamon, cardamom and black pepper warm the heart with spice and a faint gourmand edge. The base is led by frankincense, Indian oud, leather and myrrh, and it dries down resinous, smoky and leathery.
Voters rate its longevity as good, though the number of votes is small. With this much spice and oud, it should sit most comfortably in cooler weather and in the evening. Eau d'Italie Baume du Doge and Maison Incens Cuir Erindil have a close profile.
