The sun of an ancient city, rises slowly over the citadel, like liquid gold that fills the sky. Now, the early morning murmur of life is about to burst through, much the same as Spring.
A skyline that reflects mathematical magic and so bears testimony to the cradle of scholarship that is Cairo. And in harmony with the masterly shapes that rise upwards from the earth, soft female forms command the sky. The Mediterranean melting-pot is home to a thousand minarets and a thousand fragrant gems.

One of my all time favorites
The fragrance is very well-balanced. The scent is not overly powerful, it's just the right amount and it mixes really well with the spice notes. I feel like you can wear this anywhere, any day, anytime.

Powerful Fragrance
It took me a week of wearing it to really appreciate this fragrance. At first I sprayed way too many times & ended up getting a slight headache.
I did get a few compliments and as it wears down I start to really love the smell. It lasts all day !
Even the clothes I wore after being washed i could still smell it afterward.
Also big shout out to the lady who packed my order. I was pleasantly suprised at the samples I received and think I may have found my next purchase. Intense cafe from Montale.
Thankyou for spoiling your customers.
I shall be back!
