What does Abyat smell like?

Lily of the valley and saffron come first, then jasmine, rose and carnation form a floral heart. The base is led by oud, musk and amber, which add a creamy, animalic warmth.

Its longevity and sillage are rated strong, so a small amount may be enough. It reads unisex, and although the number of votes is small, its rating is high. Santa Maria Novella Muschio and Arabian Oud Saffron Oud have a close profile.
