What does Bukhara smell like?

It opens with blackcurrant and peach, which give a fruity sweetness. In the heart, tuberose, orange blossom and jasmine absolute bring out the floral side. In the base, oud, white cedarwood, sandalwood, vanilla and amber tie it together in a woody, powdery warmth.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, and most voters find the longevity high. Votes gather around leisure, nights out and evenings, with daytime and office use chosen less often. Guerlain Insolence and Laura Biagiotti Sotto Voce have a close profile.
