Afnan Turathi Blue

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, soft skin-like warmth, more the smell of clean skin than a scent of its own.

It opens on citruses, moves through amber and woodsy notes, and settles on musk, patchouli and spices.

• citruses: a general citrus impression rather than any one fruit
• amber: warm sweet resin, soft and slightly powdery. More of a glow than a sharp smell

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.
