LeatheryWhat does Les Nuits de Marrakech smell like?
It opens with frankincense, saffron and cistus, giving a resinous, spicy warmth. In the heart, cypriol, amberwood and ambergris add woody depth. The base of cedarwood, Kashmiri musk and patchouli dries down gently, with floral and oriental tones staying in the background.
Voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so these impressions rest on a limited sample. It sits comfortably on both men and women. Eutopie No. 10 and Amouage Overture 41 have a close profile.
