What does Malfa Walls smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, though those ratings rest on only a small number of votes. It is not tied to one gender and suits men and women alike.

It opens with citrus and thyme, while blackcurrant liqueur adds a rounded sweetness. In the heart, sage and frankincense form a resinous, green transition. The base leaves a leathery, smoky, woody floor of leather, oud and cade juniper, softened by the sweet and spicy accords. Dolce & Gabbana Velvet Desert Oud and Boucheron Oud de Carthage have a close profile.
