What does Queen of The Night smell like?

The top holds blue lotus, saffron and cinnamon, the heart frankincense, kyphi and amber, and the base myrrh, sandalwood and tonka bean. The overall impression is sweet, spicy and woody, with creamy and smoky touches softening the resinous core.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and night out are the favoured occasions. Voters lean feminine, though a fair share call it masculine. ānti Bast and Profumum Roma Ambra Aurea have a close profile.
