LeatheryWhat does Nectar Oud smell like?
It opens with saffron and raspberry, giving a fruity, sweet and spicy start. In the heart, oud, frankincense and cypriol come forward, and the scent turns woody, smoky and resinous. Benzoin keeps the sweetness going in the base, while Atlas cedar adds a dry, woody foundation. The overall feel is oriental, with leathery touches.
Both longevity and sillage are rated strong, and most voters score each of them high. It suits those who like rich, sweet and spicy oud fragrances. Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade and Gucci Intense Oud have a close profile.
