What does Zaffran smell like?

Saffron, cinnamon, cardamom and clove carry the spicy side, while tangerine, mandarin orange and blood orange soften it with a fresh citrus sparkle. Amber, sandalwood and choya loban add resinous warmth, and Indian vetiver, Java vetiver and patchouli build an earthy base. Tobacco and rose leave a leathery, faintly sweet shade in the background.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It suits men and women alike. Lubin Upper Ten and Sospiro Tenore have a close profile.
