What does Fatih Sultan Mehmed smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters point to fall and winter, with spring not far behind, and it leans towards leisure and evening wear. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair share find it feminine.

It feels fresh, floral and fruity at once: red apple and bergamot brighten it, while rose and iris add a soft floral touch. Underneath runs a sweet, spicy, resinous oriental thread, with benzoin, frankincense, patchouli and cedarwood building a woody base that musk and ambergris smooth out. Fort & Manlé Süleyman Le Magnifique and Kemi Aqua Regia have a close profile.
