What it actually smells like

Althaïr opens with fresh bergamot and mandarin, lifted by the subtly resinous character of elemi. Orange blossom soon adds a soft floral brightness, while cinnamon and cardamom introduce a gentle warmth that never feels overly spicy. As it settles, rich bourbon vanilla becomes the star of the fragrance, wrapped in creamy guaiac wood and smooth praline to create a warm, comforting finish with exceptional depth and longevity.
