What does Opulence of Dubai smell like?
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards nights out and evenings. Votes on character tilt a little towards masculine, though it reads as unisex overall.
It opens bright and spicy with Italian bergamot, Nigerian ginger and elemi resin. The heart brings chocolate, Damask rose, pink pepper and cardamom, and the scent turns sweeter here. The dry-down settles on a woody, creamy, slightly smoky base of coffee, frankincense, amber and Bourbon vanilla. Parfums de Marly Pegasus Exclusif and Kayali Invite Only Amber | 23 have a close profile.
