What does Ishtar smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters place it mostly in fall and spring, with winter and summer a little behind. It is picked most for leisure and evening wear, and the masculine and feminine votes sit close together, so it fits either way.

As a whole it is built from juniper, sandalwood, benzoin, frankincense, musk, myrrh and lily. The green, fresh side meets a floral lily note, while the resins and sandalwood add a woody, slightly sweet, powdery depth. Myrrh and frankincense leave a smoky, spicy shadow.
