Maison Asrar perfumes in the oriental family

Oriental, in perfume language, means warm and rich: amber, resins, vanilla and spice, often with a touch of wood or flowers. The word is old trade vocabulary rather than a place on the map, and modern houses use it loosely. In practice it points at compositions that feel round and enveloping instead of crisp. Look at the heart and base of each pyramid to see whether the warmth comes from spice, from sweetness or from resin.
