What does An Unknown Dream smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong, so it carries across a room and stays on the skin through the day. There are not enough votes to say which seasons or occasions suit it, but its unisex profile works for any wearer.

The top is built from Japanese rose otto, violet absolute, honeysuckle otto and jasmine sambac otto, so the floral side leads. The heart brings white ambergris, orris root and tuberose, and the base of Papua sandalwood and Malayan oud settles into a woody, creamy finish.
