What does Attar al Ghutra smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evenings or nights out, while summer lags well behind. It mostly reads as masculine.

It opens with oud, thyme, mandarin orange, bergamot and saffron, with raspberry adding a fruity sweetness. The heart brings patchouli, jasmine, rose and frankincense, giving a floral, resinous feel. The base of suede, leather, sandalwood and amber settles into a warm, leathery oriental finish.
