About This Perfume
Muntasira Dhahab by Orientica is a Leather fragrance for men. Muntasira Dhahab was launched in 2018. Top notes are Cumin, Bergamot and Lemon; middle notes are Leather, Cedar and Sandalwood; base notes are Tobacco and Patchouli. The sweet, golden taste of victory awaits the man who knows what he wants, and stops at nothing to get it. He smells the scent of victory from afar, and victory itself is acquainted with his scent, that opens with a bittersweet citric burst, with spicy undertones leading to a leathery-woody heart and a rich, nuanced, warm and earthy base of tobacco and patchouli. Fragrance Notes: Top note: Bergamot, Lemon, Cumin Middle note: Leather, Cedar wood, Sandalwood Base note: Tobacco, Patchouli
