What does Incense & Cedrat smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and favour night-out and evening wear. More voters read it as masculine, though a fair share see it as feminine.

It opens with citron, bringing a fresh, citrusy brightness. At the heart, Omani frankincense adds a resinous, smoky, lightly spicy warmth, with the sweet side staying in the background. Vetiver then settles into a woody base. Bvlgari Le Gemme - Ambero and Monastère Notre-Dame Ganagobie Vétyver have a close profile.
