What does Golden Prince smell like?

Juniper berry, pink pepper and grapefruit open it fresh with a slight edge. In the heart, nutmeg, cedarwood and frankincense bring out the spice and resin. Vetiver, sandalwood and cashmeran then leave a dry, soft, smoky woodiness underneath.

Its longevity and sillage are rated as good, though the number of ratings is small, so this is a tentative picture. The scent runs along a masculine line. L'Occitane en Provence Cèdre Encens / Eau des Baux and Lattafa Asad Elixir share a close profile.
