What does A Night in Marrakesh smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. It reads neither masculine nor feminine, sitting in between.
It opens with Moroccan bergamot, cardamom and almond, with vetiver alongside. In the heart, cinnamon, saffron, ginger, coffee and Moroccan rose build a spicy, sweet floral warmth. It settles into honey, amber, patchouli and Cambodian oud, woody and resinous.
