What does Classic Collection: Aqua Orientalis - Ksar / Casbah smell like?

The top holds mimosa, black tea and cardamom, so floral softness meets the dry edge of tea and a touch of spice. Moroccan rose and rosewood lead the heart, and Indian spices with amber carry the base into a warm, powdery oriental feel.

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Voters lean towards winter, fall and spring about equally, with summer trailing slightly. It suits leisure time and evenings best, and since feminine and masculine votes are close, it reads somewhere in between. Houbigant Rose du Désert and Vertus 1001 have a close profile.
