Widian Liwa Extrait de Parfum is a sweet, spicy unisex scent that sets jasmine, bergamot and saffron over geranium and white blossoms, then settles onto oud and woods.
Skunky's take: I wandered into a flower garden and I am not leaving.

OrientalWhat does Liwa (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?
Longevity and sillage both rate as strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring next and summer well behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out. Votes on character tilt slightly masculine, but a good share call it feminine, so it wears comfortably either way.
It opens with jasmine, bergamot and saffron, which give a floral, faintly fruity and spicy start, while artemisia adds a thin cool edge. In the heart, geranium, white blossoms and amberwood soften the sweetness. The base of oud, vetiver, cedarwood, sandalwood and patchouli sets a woody, oriental ground. Widian Baniyas and Nishane Favonius have a close profile.
