What does Busaina smell like?

Lavender and citrus fruits sit on top, woody, floral and fruity notes meet in the heart, and musk and woods settle at the base. The fresh, floral and fruity accords share space with spicy, woody and oriental tones, with animal and fougère touches as well.

Longevity rates as good and sillage as moderate, though the votes are few, so these ratings are tentative. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, with summer chosen less often. It is picked most for leisure and evening, and business wear is not far behind. Voters see its character as masculine about as often as feminine. Rasasi Mahyouba and L'Occitane Lavande de Haute-Provence have a close profile.
