What does Arabian Myrrh smell like?

It opens with bergamot and coriander, and jasmine gives the heart a floral note. The base holds patchouli, amber, sandalwood, vanilla, cedarwood and musk, which settle into a sweet, powdery, creamy warmth. The fruity and spicy touches keep the sweetness from turning heavy.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters recommend autumn and winter, with spring not far behind and summer chosen least. It suits evenings and nights out best, though daytime wear also gets votes. Widian Hili and Initio Rehab have a close profile.
