What does Blue Lotus smell like?

Blue lotus and ylang-ylang give it a fresh floral side, while cardamom adds a light touch of spice. Amber and Bourbon vanilla sweeten it, and Mysore sandalwood with amyris lays down a woody base. Ambrette seed brings a powdery, creamy softness, and the overall impression leans resinous and oriental.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, winter and spring, and it suits evenings and leisure wear best. Voters lean towards calling it feminine, though it is unisex. Xerjoff Amber Star and Xerjoff Layla have a close profile.
