ResinousWhat does Caldo Orientale smell like?
Most voters pick autumn and winter, and lean towards evenings and nights out. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. More voters read it as feminine, though a sizeable share finds it masculine.
It opens with orange blossom; the heart of myrrh, gardenia, vanilla and Tunisian neroli builds a floral, sweet core. The base of musk, amber and patchouli finishes it with a woody, spicy warmth. Widian Sahara and Adnan B. Ambre Noir have a close profile.
