What does Azal / Al Azal (Parfum) smell like?

Voters find its longevity very strong and its sillage strong, so it stays on the skin for a long time and carries well around the wearer. It suits both men and women, and it has a dense, heavy character.

It opens with cardamom giving a spicy first impression. In the heart, cedar, saffron and patchouli form a woody, earthy base. In the base, oud, vanilla and praliné come forward; the scent grows sweeter and its smoky oriental side becomes clearer. Anfas Alkhaleej Ameer and Ard Al Zaafaran Oud Al Sayad have a similar profile.
