What does Oud Wa Ward smell like?

The notes read as one whole rather than split into layers: Thai oud, Indonesian patchouli and Turkish rose. Floral and sweet accords lead, balanced by woody, resinous and earthy sides, while creamy and oriental touches soften it.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening, leisure and night-out wear lead the occasions. It leans slightly masculine, with a strong feminine vote too. Scents by Skanda Indonesian Patchouli Thai Oud and Ensar Oud Oud Extraordinaire have a close profile.
