Obsessive Oudh

It opens with amber and musk; in the heart amber meets oud, and the base is oud alone. The accords build an oriental frame with resinous, earthy and leathery tones, and an animalic warmth runs alongside.

Its longevity and sillage both come across as strong, and most voters rate them highly, though the vote count is small, so this is only a tendency. Voters pick fall and winter most often, then spring. It suits those who want a dense, heavy scent that doesn't lean masculine or feminine. Cartier Oud & Ambre and Rasasi Oudh Siufi have a close profile.
