What does Railway to the Rooftop smell like?
It opens with mandarin orange, saffron and cumin, a spicy, citrusy start. In the heart, caramel, rose and iris add a floral sweetness, while cedarwood, leather, patchouli and oud build a woody, smoky base.
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evenings, leisure time and nights out lead the occasions. It reads somewhat more masculine, though a fair share of voters call it feminine. Maison Alhambra Fraîche / Nouveau and Khadlaj Wow Oud have a close profile.
