Katana Fars is a unisex scent that sets citrus and spice against the smoky woodiness of Assam oud, gaiac wood and cedarwood; it has been discontinued.
Skunky's take: Like opening a window: the room feels lighter at once.

SmokyWhat does Fars smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters rate the longevity high, though the number of votes is small, so this impression is tentative. It is made as a unisex scent and does not read clearly masculine or feminine.
Lemon and orange form the bright side. Black pepper, clove, turmeric and Persian saffron add a sweet, spicy warmth, and ylang-ylang brings a soft floral touch. Beneath it all lies a woody, smoky base. The notes have no top-to-base split, so it reads as a single whole.
