What does Dhofar smell like?

It opens with grapefruit, lemon and bergamot, while sage and coriander add a spicy edge. In the heart, orange blossom, rose and lavender meet the green freshness of pine and galbanum. The base of patchouli, sandalwood and vanilla dries down resinous, earthy and slightly smoky.

Voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good. Season votes spread almost evenly across the year, with fall and spring just ahead. It suits leisure time and nights out, and most voters read it as masculine.
