Overall Character & Impression
The fragrance opens with a fresh-spicy burst: the pink pepper, nutmeg and bergamot give an energetic, slightly exhilarated start.

Then it settles into a woody-smoky heart: the cedar, labdanum and incense build a more serious, refined ambience.

Finally the base brings sensual warmth and depth: musk, amber and ambergris linger on the skin, leaving a “royal” impression per the name.

It leans toward amber-woody orientals with spicy accents — so while unisex, it might feel more “masculine leaning” in many traditional fragrance contexts, yet modern noses will find it equally wearable on women.

According to community reviews, it is somewhat comparable to the DNA of Paco Rabanne Phantom.

When & How to Wear It
Given its profile, here are some style suggestions:

Best occasions: Evening events, special dinners, dates, nights out — when you want a fragrance with presence. Also good for a day-to-night transition thanks to the fresh opening.
Lattafa India

Season/climate: Because of the spicy and woody depth, it might be especially pleasing in cooler evenings; but the fresh top notes make it also acceptable for mild daytime wear. In a tropical climate like Lagos, you might prefer moderate spraying (e.g., 2-3 sprays) to avoid it becoming too heavy.

Wear it as a statement: The name and marketing emphasise “royal” presence — so use it when you want to stand out or feel elevated.

Layering & complementing: If you like, apply on clothing or scarf for extra projection; pair with a clean, slightly lighter daytime scent if you shift from day into evening.

Performance (Longevity & Projection)
According to user comments on fragrance communities (e.g., Fragrantica), the longevity is moderate: one reviewer gave it ~3.38/5 for longevity.

Projection (how far the scent travels) is moderate to close-medium — it may start with a decent presence, then dry down to something more intimate rather than “massive cloud”.

Due to the price-value positioning, some users comment the opening is somewhat synthetic and the performance could be better, but given the cost, it offers impressive results.

Tip: On hot humid days (like Lagos daytime), apply sparingly — maybe one spray on torso + one on clothing — to maintain elegance rather than overwhelming. In cooler evenings, you can spray 2-3 times.

What to Expect in the First Hour vs Dry-Down
0-15 minutes: Bright, spicy citrus opening. You’ll likely catch the bergamot + ginger + pink pepper immediately.

15-60 minutes: The wood-smoke and resinous elements begin to emerge; less citrus, more depth.

1-4 hours: The scent becomes predominantly woody-amber with musk, settling down closer to the skin.

After ~4 hours: It may become skin-close “warm whisper” of amber-musk, depending on environment and how many sprays.

After ~6+ hours: Might be faint on clothing/skin; layering or re-spraying may be needed if you expect long wear in heat.
