What does Varens d'Orient Nomad smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring, autumn and winter, with summer well behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, though it also finds room in daily and office wear.

The notes read as one whole rather than a top, heart and base: the fruity freshness of apple meets saffron's spice, and the firm tone of leather is softened by creamy vanilla and tonka bean. Sweetness leads over an oriental, woody ground, with a slightly synthetic sheen in the background. Armani Code Absolu pour Homme and Burberry Hero Elixir de Parfum have a close profile.
