What does Oriental Essence - Nuit d'Azar smell like?

Its longevity is good and its sillage moderate, so it is noticeable up close without filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is worn for daily use and leisure, with business a close third. It reads masculine and modern.

The top opens bright with mandarin orange, blackcurrant and green leaves. In the heart, sage, geranium and raspberry take over, the raspberry softening the sweetness a little. The base of vetiver, patchouli and copaiba balsam adds a woody, spicy footing. Giorgio Armani Eau d'Arômes and M. Micallef DesirToxic have a close profile.
