Qissa is citrusy and floral. It smells very fresh and clean. The citruses stand out, then the light florals and musk kicks in. This is a perfect scent for spring, summer and fall. Sillage is moderate, and it lasts around 7-8 hours without maceration. It's a little similar to Byredo's Bal d'Afrique at first, but goes it's own direction after a while. It comes in such a gorgeous bottle as well. Overall, this is fantastic. I just love it. As a man, I can say that it leans more masculine. I hope Perfume Online eventually labels it as Unisex because it's really not just feminine. This was a great purchase, and I am dying to see what maceration does to this. Qissa is slept on, and deserves so much more hype.
