What does Pure Alpha (Perfume Oil) smell like?

Voters rate both longevity and sillage as weak, though the vote count is small, so this is only a rough guide. There are no season or occasion votes, but the perfume is aimed at men.

The top is fresh and bright with grapefruit, mint and mandarin orange. In the heart, Ceylonese cinnamon and spicy notes take the lead, with rose softening the sweetness. The base brings leather, ambergris, woody notes and Indian patchouli, leaving a fresh, sweet, spicy and leathery impression. Lattafa Najdia and Sangado Pure Gold for Men have a close profile.
