What does Marmara smell like?

It starts with citrus and spice: the bergamot's brightness is sharpened by black pepper, while saffron adds a dry warmth. In the heart, powdery notes, cashmere wood and ambroxan soften the scent, with green and faintly smoky shades staying in the background. The base of musk and sandalwood is creamy and resinous.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick it for daily wear and business, with leisure and evening close behind. It sits comfortably on both men and women and suits the setting more than any single season.
