What does Khaan smell like?

Pink lotus and Italian green mandarin orange give it a bright start. At the heart, Turkish damask rose, Saudi Arabian taif rose, Persian saffron and Himalayan jasmine lead, and the floral, sweet side takes over. Cambodian oud and Siberian deer musk leave a woody, creamy, faintly animal trail at the base.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring and fall, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so it sits comfortably on either. Levent La Bohème and Xerjoff CoExistence have a close profile.
