From your scent profile
Perris Monte Carlo Balsamir is a unisex scent built on myrrh, labdanum and balsams, with a citrus brightness softening its resinous, spicy core.

What does Balsamir smell like?
Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. Leisure and evening wear lead, while night out and business also get votes. Longevity and sillage are rated good, though these ratings rest on few votes.
The top opens with Somalian myrrh, pink pepper and mandarin orange, so citrus and spice sit side by side at first. In the heart, opoponax and labdanum bring a resinous warmth. The base sweetens with tonka bean, gains a woody frame from Virginia cedar wood, and turns creamy and soft with fir balsam and tolu balm.
