What does Siwa (2018) smell like?

Cinnamon leaf, French narcissus absolute and freesia open floral with a light spiciness. In the heart, frankincense, heliotrope and sandalwood settle the scent onto a powdery, creamy footing. Benzoin, Bourbon vanilla absolute and musk leave a soft, sweet finish towards the base.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, with winter further behind. It suits daily wear, leisure time and the office, and most voters read it as feminine. Jimmy Choo Iris Crush and Autour du Parfum Poudre d'Iris have a close profile.
