What does Orionis smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated very strong; the sample is small, so this is tentative, but nearly all voters find the sillage high. Its density reads as a fragrance that leaves a clear trail, and it can be worn by anyone.

Italian saffron and frankincense lead the opening, with musk, ambergris and Indian patchouli in the heart. In the base, Tolu balm, oud, vanilla and benzoin dominate, setting the sweetness on a resinous, woody ground.
