SmokyWhat does Elixir Attar x Katana - 1001 Nights smell like?
It opens on aniseed, black pepper, saffron and pink pepper, with oud and elemi resin adding a woody weight beneath the spice. In the heart, Taif, Bulgarian and Turkish roses meet honey and tobacco, while heliotrope brings a powdery softness. The base of Philippine and Papua oud, leather, benzoin, vanilla and amber turns sweeter yet rests on an animal, smoky darkness.
Its profile is close to Elixir Attar Melange and Yves Saint Laurent Opium (1977).
