What does Taraq smell like?

At first, the sweetness of plum and dried fruits meets the spicy warmth of saffron. In the heart, oud, rose, leathery notes and dried date come forward, and the fruity, sweet side rests on a woody, resinous and earthy footing. In the base, musk, amber, sandalwood and patchouli soften and deepen the scent.

Voters rate its longevity as strong, though the number of votes is small. Its oriental build and dense character point towards cooler weather and evening wear. Being unisex, it does not lean to either men or women. Those after a close profile can also look at nBitor Taraq and Byredo Accord Oud.
