What does Ekhtiari smell like?

The opening leans on fruity notes and mandarin, where the fresh, aquatic and fruity sides come through. Gardenia and jasmine add a soft floral heart, and in the base tonka bean, musk and vanilla sweeten the scent and pull it towards a woody, oriental warmth.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall and winter further behind. Leisure, business and night out are almost evenly split. Its profile is close to Kenzo ☮ and Le Labo Neroli 36.
