Thameen Insignia is a unisex fragrance that opens with bitter orange, fig and whisky and carries damask rose and bay leaf in its heart, with a fresh, green, leathery character.
Skunky's take: That just-out-of-the-shower feeling, clean and fresh.

LeatheryWhat does Insignia smell like?
At the start, the citrusy brightness of bitter orange meets the fruity side of fig, while whisky adds a slight edge. In the heart, damask rose, bay leaf and geranium keep things floral and green. Vetiver, sandalwood and suede settle into a woody, spicy, leathery base.
Longevity and sillage are both rated good, and a fair share of voters score each of them high. Being unisex, it reads comfortably on both men and women. Jo Malone Blackberry & Bay and Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle Rose & Cuir have a close profile.
