What does Oud Vanille smell like?

The scent reads sweet and woody. Vanilla, champaca and jasmine sambac add a soft floral side, while Cambodian oud and Spanish labdanum bring resinous, earthy and animal tones. Balsam fir needle adds a cool edge and ambroxan smooths the wood. Smoky and leathery facets stay in the background.

Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. It is unisex, and its dense, warm build points towards cooler days. It has been discontinued.
