What does Saffron / September 2020 smell like?

Spicy saffron and cardamom sit alongside rose and metal, while patchouli and clary sage lay a woody, slightly green base. Tonka bean, vanilla, musk and lactone pull it towards a creamy, sweet side, and ozone adds freshness. The accords also carry a synthetic edge, and the whole stays on an oriental line.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though with few votes this is only a rough guide. It suits men and women alike. Rasasi Daarej pour Homme and Sakan The Palm have a close profile.
