What does Siberian Oudh smell like?

It opens with cocoa absolute, which gives a sweet, gourmand warmth. In the heart, Namibian myrrh and cedar bring a resinous, woody dryness. The base is led by castoreum, Bangladeshian oud, amber and Siberian musk, with Irish white ambergris softening this heavy, spicy, oriental texture.

Voters rate both its longevity and its sillage as good, though the number of votes is small. With its dense, dark build it suits cooler weather and evenings, and it sits between masculine and feminine. Its profile is close to LM Parfums Black Oud and Areej Le Doré Russian Oud.
