What does Odyssey Aoud smell like?

It opens with saffron, nutmeg and lavender: the spice leads and the lavender softens it a little. In the heart, oud and woody notes give it a resinous, oriental body. The base of ambroxan, patchouli and musk dries down sweet and slightly synthetic.

Both longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick winter and fall, while spring and summer play a smaller part. It is recommended mostly for evenings and nights out, and it also works for leisure time. It reads masculine. Initio Oud for Greatness and Flavia Initial have a close profile.
