What does Khafaya (blue) smell like?

The top notes are grapefruit, nutmeg and cinnamon: bright citrus with a warm spicy edge right beside it. Lavender and woody notes form the heart. In the base, sandalwood, amber and liquorice sweeten the scent and leave an oriental, slightly leathery trace.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, and they score its value for money highly. It reads masculine. Zimaya Zukhruf (black) and Al Haramain Azlan Oud Bleu Edition have a close profile.
