What does Muscat smell like?

It opens with cinnamon, saffron and date, then moves into frankincense, rose absolute, incense and halva at the heart. The base holds oud, vanilla, cardamom and oakmoss. The result reads resinous, woody and oriental, with the floral side staying in the background.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick evening and night out, and summer is the least chosen season. It leans masculine in the votes, though a fair share call it feminine. Etat Libre d'Orange Spice Must Flow and Ormonde Jayne Oudh Flor have a close profile.
