What does Édition Rare - Rosam smell like?

Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evenings or nights out; summer is rarely chosen. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Feminine and masculine votes sit close together, so it reads comfortably either way.

It opens with citrus notes and rose, then rose absolute, saffron and frankincense lead the heart. Patchouli, amber, oud and sandalwood in the base make it woody, resinous and slightly smoky. The floral sweetness is balanced by spicy and earthy tones. Tom Ford Oud Fleur and Montale Fantastic Oud have a close profile.
