What does Nardus smell like?
Voters find its longevity and sillage good, though the vote count is small, so this is only a rough guide. It is unisex, and its woody, earthy character suits anyone who likes heavy, calm fragrances more than it points to a man or a woman.
As a whole the scent rests on sandalwood, patchouli and nagarmotha; spikenard and artemisia add a green, slightly bitter tone, while cistus and frankincense bring a resinous, smoky depth. The overall impression is dry, earthy and spicy.
