Rasasi Oudh Al Mubakhar

Mostly warm baking spice, in the cinnamon and clove family. Underneath that, the flower itself, ranging from jammy to green depending on the blend.

It opens on saffron and bergamot, moves through turkish rose, geranium and violet, and settles on musk, sandalwood and tonka bean.

• saffron: warm leathery spice, dry with a faint medicinal bite
• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does

It lasts well and carries into a room.

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