Balsamic, ambery, beautifully sweet and salty, addictive, versatile
This blend opens up very clearly with leathery scent from labdanum (Cistus) but it will be tamed as soon as you notice it. Saffron is somewhat soft and intimate, not that kind of super earthy and powerful which is familiar for many like Pachouli as well - it’s not that gloomy dark and extremely earthy one, it’s very soft wrapped in tender Musk Cashmere. The whole texture is attractively balsamic which I love a lot and “a resin like” from Amber Wood. From time to time I get the hints of Liquorice but it’s more about the saltiness. The scent is sweet and a little bit salty in the same time: Ambergris performs beautifully here. It’s like a mix of sweet and salty candies which you are eating and can’t stop, I can’t stop sniffing this addictive combination here.

All the notes are very harmonious, perfectly blended together and it’s very easy to love this if you like balsamic, ambery scents. The concoction is refined, it has a mysterious and sensual character. Les Nuits de Marrakech is surprisingly versatile scent, office safe, wearable year around and in all climates. This is a perfect example of a unisex scent since on my skin it has a certain kind of luminosity whereas on my husband’s skin it’s a tad darker and richer. This was love from the first sniff.

Just close your eyes and feel the magic of Marrakech.

Oh, I love saffron and saffron is obvious in this scent. This is a scent for cold weather and I am thinking about getting a full bottle.

A soft, warm night of heavenly dark, musk-oil polished wood and gentle saffron stars.

Gentle wisps of incense drift through the wooden stalls of the spice bazaar, a subtle musk scent wafts towards me from the cashmere vendor.

I'm walking through the still hot sand on the outskirts of Marrakech. Spices and saffron swirl around me. Yes, this is the Orient.

Captures the concept well:
a sweet, smoky scent of spice bazaar that doesn’t clash too much.
Fragrance progression is very pleasant and H/S is solid.

Super soft, very homogeneous scent, everything is finely balanced, I get Jubilation25 vibes without the fruits, good, but the DNA doesn't excite me..
