What does Arabian Incense smell like?
Cypress and frankincense lead the top; in the heart, gaiac wood, cedarwood and patchouli set a woody, resinous base. In the base, benzoin and amber notes soften the sweetness while the oriental side stays dominant.
Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good. Most pick fall and winter, spring trails behind and summer is rarely chosen. It leans towards evenings, nights out and leisure time. Atelier des Ors Larmes du Désert and Arte Profumi Samharam have a close profile.
