What does L'Air du Désert Marocain Noir smell like?

Bergamot, lemon and petitgrain give the opening a bright edge, while spices add warmth. Jasmine, leather and labdanum lead the heart, and a base of vetiver, patchouli, cedarwood, ambergris and oakmoss grounds it in earthy, resinous, woody tones.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening and night out are the favoured occasions. It reads more masculine than feminine, though many also call it modern. Yatagan and Bel Ami have a close profile.
