La Fumée Maroc

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin rather than filling a room. Voters place it most often in the evening, with daily wear and leisure not far behind, and the office least of all. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine, sitting somewhere between the two.

It opens with elemi resin, peach, prune, apricot and cinnamon, a fruity and spicy start. Moroccan rose takes the heart, and the base of oud, vanilla and Atlas cedar settles into a woody, powdery, smoky warmth, with resinous accords softening the fruit. Dior Dolce Vita and Roja Parfums Taif Aoud have a close profile.
