In plain words

The main accords of Radio Bombay are woody and powdery. It opens with Woody Notes and Cedar, reveals Sandalwood and Iris at its heart, and dries down to Sandalwood and Coconut. It lasts a moderate time and projects moderately; people reach for it in summer and autumn, mostly by day.
