What does Oud Wa Amber smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though both ratings rest on few votes. It is heavy and warm, and reads comfortably on men and women alike.

The scent stays in one sweet, spicy, woody line from start to finish. Resinous labdanum and amber carry the sweetness, Indian nutmeg adds the spice, and oud brings the woody, leathery edge. The oriental character comes across as a single block, with the notes blending rather than separating.
