This Indian composition is commendable. The opening is more spicy than anything else and is marked by a succession of cardamom (present in significant quantities), a little bitter orange, saffron (which recalls the smell of hay), and a minimal quantity of ginger. It is a first part that we can enjoy for at least half an hour, after which a note of patchouli takes over, but the top notes do not all disappear at the same time, the freshness of the cardamom remains present which for a while mixes with the patchouli and a wood of barely perceptible cedar. Not many seconds later you start to smell the vetiver, I would define it as dark green, because it is initially affected by the presence of the patchouli. You can also perceive a contrasting amber edge. Then progressing towards the base, the fragrance takes on the characteristics of a vetiver with a light leathery nuance. The white musk note is not present. In summary I would define it as a woody, spicy and earthy fragrance. The key notes, which can be perceived even by those who are not experts, are cardamom, bitter orange, saffron, amber and vetiver.
