The Book of Wisdom - Elixir Fatal

It opens with three roses, Turkish, Bulgarian and Damask, alongside tobacco, frankincense and raspberry, the raspberry adding a sweet layer over the florals. At the heart, leather and oud give it a smoky, animalic edge. In the base, oakmoss and musk soften that rough texture and settle it onto a warm, earthy footing.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, so a light hand may be enough. It reads as a dense, oriental profile that suits men and women alike. Montale Oud Edition and Tigha The Dark Side have a close profile.
