What does Ambre Oud smell like?

The notes read as one whole rather than as a top, heart and base. The earthy, smoky side of the oud meets resinous frankincense and myrrh, while honey and vanilla sweeten it, and tobacco with a spicy accord adds a dry warmth. Jasmine sambac and rose absolute bring a soft floral touch, and bergamot lightens the weight a little. Mysore sandalwood and ambergris form a woody, oriental ground. Goutal Sables and Xerjoff Wardasina / Rosso Afgano have a close profile.
