L'Air du Désert Marocain
Tauer Perfumes L'Air du Désert Marocain smells like resin warmed in the hand, with coriander laid over the top.

How it moves
It arrives on coriander, petitgrain and cumin — bright, immediate, gone before you have decided about it. By the half hour it has become rock rose, jasmine and cedarwood. By evening it is ambergris, vetiver, frankincense and vanilla, and it is better for it.
What wearers say
4.4 out of 5 across 4,800 ratings — well loved, and not quietly.
Who made it
Andy Tauer composed it in 2005, for Tauer Perfumes in Switzerland. A self-taught chemist working from Zurich, Tauer made this dry cedar-and-ambergris desert scent his signature; it remains one of the most acclaimed independent perfumes ever made.
