What does Yara smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, spring follows, and summer is rarely chosen. It is worn mostly in the evening and on nights out. Though unisex, most voters read it as masculine.

Saffron, pink pepper and bergamot open it spicy and bright. In the heart, tonka bean, rose and Jasminum grandiflorum soften the sweetness. The base of musk, leather, Java vetiver, cedarwood and amber settles into a woody, smoky foundation.
