It opens with heliotrope, red chili and saffron, a warm spiced start. The heart brings myrrh, oud, patchouli, jasmine sambac and tobacco, giving the scent a woody, resinous character. The base holds vetiver, sandalwood, labdanum, vanilla and amber; vanilla and amber add sweetness while vetiver brings an earthy edge. The overall impression is oriental: sweet, spicy and smoky. Thameen Carved Oud and Tom Ford Oud Wood Parfum have a close profile.
