What does Musk-Sharqi smell like?

Both its longevity and its sillage are rated strong, and most voters score them high, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. The profile is balanced enough to sit comfortably on either men's or women's skin.

The top notes pair citrus with rose for a fresh, lightly fruity start. In the heart, patchouli, cashmere wood, tuberose and jasmine set the floral side on a woody base. The base is led by sweet vanilla, powdery white musk and the resinous, slightly animalic character of Indian oud.
