What does Oud du Jour smell like?

Pink pepper, Persian saffron and raspberry open with a spicy, fruity start. In the heart, rose absolute, frankincense, lily of the valley and plum bring out a floral, sweet side. Indonesian oud, patchouli and black amber dominate the base, settling into a woody, resinous and slightly smoky scent.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and leisure and evening wear lead the occasions. Portrait of a Lady (Eau de Parfum) and Chambre Noire have a close profile.
