Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
People close to you notice, nobody gets overwhelmed.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Hamdani smell like?
It opens with frankincense and myrrh, then warms through honey, gaiac wood and clove at the heart. The base is dense with styrax, tobacco, benzoin and leather, while papyrus and sandalwood give it a woody footing. The overall impression is oriental, earthy and slightly animalic.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening or night-out wear. Most see it as masculine and classic. LM Parfums Hard Leather and Rania J. T. Habanero have a close profile.
