What does Alcazar (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with nutmeg, Spanish lemon and petitgrain, where citrus brightness meets spice. Lavender, orange blossom and rosemary form a floral, herbal heart. Tonka bean sweetens the base, while leather and white cedar give it a powdery, woody footing.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the vote counts are small, so these ratings are best read with caution. Voters lean mostly towards leisure and daily wear, with evening, night out and business also getting votes. It reads masculine. Gucci Première and Curve Black have a close profile.
