What does Golestan smell like?

It opens with bergamot and lemon zest as a citrus lift, while cinnamon and ylang-ylang add a spicy, floral warmth. The heart builds a full floral body from orange blossom, tuberose and rose absolute. In the base, vanilla leads, with woods, ambergris, patchouli and cistus giving it a resinous, woody footing.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, though spring is close behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out. It tilts somewhat feminine, but plenty of voters call it masculine. Roja Parfums Aoud and Xerjoff Esquel have a close profile.
