Pomare's Stolen Perfume · 2020

Floral · Fruity · Spicy

Pomare's Stolen Perfume Rasa Anniversary Limited Edition is a woody, oriental unisex scent in which oud resin and flowers meet spice, fruit and smoke; it has been discontinued.

Turmeric and Persian saffron add spice, Californian passion fruit brings a fruity brightness, and pink lotus, frangipani and pot marigold soften the floral side. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are tentative. It sits comfortably on both men and women, and suits those who enjoy dense oud fragrances.
