What does Nile Whispers smell like?

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong; the sample is small, but most voters score both high. A dense build means even a single spray makes itself known. It reads as unisex.

It opens with bergamot, saffron and date, moving into a heart of patchouli, cinnamon, magnolia and caramel. The base holds benzoin, musk, vanilla, leather and oakmoss. A sweet, spicy body carries resinous, earthy, smoky and leathery tones, with a faint animal edge in the background.
