Afnan Kiaana Crush

Mostly warm baking spice, in the cinnamon and clove family. Underneath that, sweet resinous warmth, soft and slightly powdery.

It opens on saffron, moves through passionfruit, patchouli and agarwood, and settles on madagascar vanilla, incense and musk.

• saffron: warm leathery spice, dry with a faint medicinal bite
• patchouli: dark and earthy with a sweet edge, somewhere between damp soil and a second-hand bookshop

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
