What does Shirin Chai smell like?

The top pairs cardamom, saffron, mint and lemon for a fresh, spicy start, while Persian rose otto and frankincense add a floral, resinous edge. In the heart, rose absolutes, jasmine and honey take over, and amber settles them onto a creamy, sweet base. At the bottom, black tea, tobacco, vetiver and sandalwood pull the scent toward woody and gourmand ground. Fresh, green and oriental accords run through it as well. Sultan Pasha Attars Âme Sombre Grade 1 and Amouage Enclave have a close profile.
