What does Sacred Memory smell like?

Red berries and bergamot give it a lively fruity side. Tobacco absolute and whisky barrel pull it towards smoke and spice, while amber and musk soften everything into a warm, resinous whole. The notes read together as one blended accord rather than separate layers.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate to good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening or a night out. More voters call it masculine, though a good share see it as feminine. It has been discontinued. Swiss Arabian Kashkha and Al Rehab Avenue have a close profile.
