What does Sikkim (2005) smell like?
Galbanum opens green and sharp. In the heart, ylang-ylang and jasmine bring a soft floral note while cinnamon adds spicy warmth. Oakmoss and musk settle the base into a powdery, woody, slightly leathery chypre, with resinous and oriental touches staying in the background.
Its profile is close to Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche (Eau de Toilette) and Bourjois Kobako.
