What does Midnight Amber smell like?

It opens with woodland strawberry, Bourbon vanilla Orpur® and nutmeg, a sweet and spicy start. Turkish rose and jasmine bring the floral heart forward. In the base, oud and amber settle the scent into a creamy, woody, oriental warmth.

Its sillage is moderate, though few people have rated it. Voters choose it mostly for nights out and evenings, while office and daytime wear come second. With its dark, sweet and spicy build, it sits closer to evening hours.
