What does Agarwood Noir smell like?

It opens with pink pepper, saffron and apricot, a spicy and fruity start. In the heart, several jasmines and gallic rose absolute build a floral body. The base of oud, leather and vetiver gives a woody, leathery ground, with vanilla sweetening it and white moss softening it.

Voters find its longevity and sillage strong, though the number of votes is small. Its dense build suits cooler weather and evenings. It has been discontinued. Atkinsons Her Majesty the Oud and pernoire Mansa have a close profile.
