What does Royal Oud smell like?

Both longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring next, and it leans clearly towards evenings and nights out; daytime wear gets very few votes.

Rose opens, musk sits in the heart and Cambodian oud anchors the base. The floral, fruity and sweet sides are balanced by spicy, resinous and leathery accords, while powdery and animal tones deepen the oriental character. Rasasi Maisam and Montale Intense Black Aoud have a close profile.
