In plain words

The main accords of Akaster are rose and aromatic. It opens with Cypress and Lemon, reveals Bulgarian Rose and African Geranium at its heart, and dries down to Agarwood (Oud) and Musk. It lasts long and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
