About This Perfume

Orientica Knight smells like crisp citrus and minty herbs with warm sandalwood underneath. It opens with apple, citrus notes and rosemary, moves into freesia, jasmine and mint and settles on lily of the valley, sandalwood and tobacco. It reads unisex.

It is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. It suits casual days. Released in 2018.

In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
