This is a must try for Mancera fans, or anyone who enjoys a blend of Eastern spice and leather. I recvd a strong, unsolicited compliment from a business associate the first time I wore it. Amazing scent bubble! I get spiced woods with an aged leather, nothing heavy here but long lasting and good projection. The vanilla is there at the base. Very nice. And once in a while I get a waft of incense, as if walking past the entrance to a market in the Middle East. Some of Manceras' recent releases have been amazing and this one is no exception.

Okay, so. This is CRAZY good. Love, love, love. ... I had expected some leathery/tobacco heavy deep scent, but instead it was this really fresh and uplifting, oriental style barbershoppy, gentlemanly scent. ... Loads of fresh cypress, some lavender, and that subtle amber/vanilla that sweetens everything, just the right tiny amount. This scent is so fresh, and it does so almost without any citrus. I bet you can easily wear this in high heat. In fact I'm pretty damn sure it's great four seasons per year. 


This is an absolute love for me! I don't get any leather in this, at all. I pick up a sweet, spiciness in the initial presentation. Then I get the amber and sweet tobacco with a dry woodiness to balance it. Heavenly! Like a gentle breeze wafting through a Moroccan market. They picked the right name for this fragrance!  Typical of the House of Mancera, this has fantastic projection, sillage, and longevity. One of my top 5 favorites from the house. Blended to perfection.

Saharian Wind is Brilliant - I love, love, love, how adaptable the brand of Mancera is... "boy oh boy..." - its a good one... A Spicy Oriental barbershop fougère - I instantly smell that classic fresh masculine fragrance DNA with some modern herbaceous spiciness something near or in between a Guerlain Habit Rouge and Dior Eau Sauvage Parfum. ...  A warm spicy fougère that smells peppery with a leathery depth at the top. From there it dries down to a zesty, citric and spicy, tobacco base that smells soapy, clean and sweet. Ideal for cold seasons but tame and fresh enough for warm seasons as well. And for a scent that smells like this I'm glad to say that even though the profile of Saharian Wind is lighter because it contains no oud there's still that Mancera performance that doesn't disappoint. Definitely masculine although even a female can wear this if she likes spicy herbal scents.
