What does Evening Mystique smell like?

It opens with carrot seed, angelica root and coriander, which give a dry, earthy, spicy start. In the heart, cypress, frankincense, Florentine iris, rose and juniper berry bring out the green and powdery sides. The base of vetiver, patchouli, myrrh and cedar sets a woody, smoky, resinous floor, while musk softens the animal edge.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good, and the overall score is 8 out of 10. The woody, smoky, resinous build suits evenings and cooler weather. It reads comfortably on both men and women. Amouage Gold Woman and El Nabil Oud Black have a close profile.
