What does Rock Crystal / Cristal de Roche (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, and it leans towards leisure, daytime and evening wear. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair share find it feminine.

The top notes of orange blossom, cumin, coriander and cardamom give a spicy lift. Towards the heart, frankincense, myrrh and benzoin bring a resinous warmth. In the base, vetiver, sandalwood and oakmoss leave a dry, earthy, woody finish, with smoky and oriental tones sitting in the background.
