What does Oriental Essence - Voyage en Inde smell like?

It reads as one piece: jasmine absolute brings a soft floral note, amber carries the sweetness and warmth, and patchouli adds a woody depth. The spicy touch stays in the background, while the powdery, creamy side rounds the whole blend off.

Longevity is strong and sillage is good. Most voters pick winter and fall, and it suits evenings and nights out best, though leisure and daily wear are also possible. Most voters find it feminine. Narciso Rodriguez For Her L'Absolu and Rituals Oriental Essence - Palace d'Ambre have a close profile.
