What does Saffron Flour smell like?
Saffron sets the spicy line, while horchata and butter pull the scent towards something creamy and edible. Rose water softens the sweetness a little and ambrette adds a powdery texture. The notes have no top, heart and base split and read as a single whole.
Longevity and sillage are both moderate, though few people have rated them, so those values are only a rough guide. Being unisex, it sits comfortably on any skin. Berdoues Vanille & Safran and Jo Malone Scarlet Poppy have a close profile.
