What does Royal Anbar smell like?

It opens dry and spicy with cedarwood, thyme and cinnamon. In the heart, jasmine, everlasting flower and vetiver bring floral and earthy tones. The base of ambergris, vanilla and patchouli sweetens and settles it onto a creamy, powdery ground.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, with winter and spring behind it, and it leans towards evenings and leisure wear. More voters call it masculine than feminine, though the feminine vote is sizeable. Tann Rokka Aki and Fragrance Du Bois Secret Tryst have a close profile.
