What does Taif T08 smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated very strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring and summer trailing behind. It is chosen mostly for nights out and evenings, though it also works for leisure time.

It opens with saffron, apple and bergamot, then moves into a spicy, leathery heart of rose, cypriol, suede, frankincense and nutmeg. The base dries down woody and sweetly warm, with cedarwood, musk, sandalwood, amber and Indian oud. Marc Gebauer Arabian King and Ishtara Assyria have a close profile.
