OrientalWhat does Red Sand smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated strong, so it makes itself known. Voters lean towards calling it masculine or modern, though it stays unisex. Office and daily wear sit well behind evenings.
It opens with saffron, blackcurrant and bergamot, then moves into patchouli, nagarmotha and rose. In the base, amberwood, vanilla and raspberry sweeten it into a warm, gourmand finish. The floral and woody sides keep that sweetness in check.
