Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong, and the rating from voters is high. It makes itself felt from the first spray and stays on skin for a long time. It reads as suitable for both women and men.
The notes have no top, heart and base split, so the scent unfolds as a single whole: rose and saffron give a floral, spicy start, while oud and red frankincense set it on a resinous, smoky ground. Asian musk and white ambergris soften it, and Mysore and Tonga sandalwood carry a sweet woodiness. The accords also include leathery and animal tones. Valentino Valentina Oud Assoluto and Xerjoff Alexandria Orientale have a close profile.
