What does Karagoz smell like?

It opens with herbs, pineapple and black grape, then turns floral at the heart with jasmine, neroli and patchouli. Vetiver, oud and amber dominate the base; the spicy, woody side grows clearer over time while the fruity sweetness stays in the background.

Both longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters lean towards fall and spring, though summer and winter also get a fair share. It sits closest to leisure and evening wear and mostly reads as masculine.
