What does Mogao smell like?

Citrus and spice lead: tangerine, mandarin orange and orange brightness meets the warmth of star anise, cinnamon and Sichuan pepper. Osmanthus and orange blossom add a floral sweetness, while Lapsang Souchong tea draws a smoky edge. Leather, frankincense and resins settle it onto a woody, earthy and slightly animalic base.

Voters find its longevity and sillage good, though the number of votes is small. Its spicy, smoky build makes it a characterful scent that doesn't lean masculine or feminine. Parfum Prissana Dunhuang and Zoologist Tyrannosaurus Rex have a similar profile.
