What does Caressing Cardamom smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind, and it suits leisure, daily wear and evenings. Half of the voters read it as feminine.

It opens with bergamot, cardamom and celery, then moves into a warm spiciness of cinnamon, saffron and ginger, softened by tonka bean. The base of chocolate, vanilla, sandalwood and vetiver leaves it sweet, creamy and woody. Lattafa Liam and Prada Amber pour Homme (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
