What does Oud (2019) smell like?

It opens with leather, and damask rose and amber form the heart. The base holds musk, patchouli, Burmese oud and animalic notes. A woody, resinous, oriental frame carries a leathery, animal character that dominates.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, so a light hand is enough. Its dense, dark build reads as neither strictly masculine nor feminine. It has been discontinued. Marc Gebauer Air Tiger and Stéphane Humbert Lucas Oud 777 have a close profile.
