What does Oud Sapphire smell like?

Violet comes first, then Bulgarian rose and Turkish rose turn the heart floral and powdery. The base is benzoin, oud and vanilla: the scent turns sweeter and settles into a creamy, gourmand warmth, with spicy and oriental touches sitting behind the wood.

Longevity and sillage are rated very strong, so a light hand is enough. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and favour evenings and nights out. On character, feminine votes lead slightly, though masculine votes are not far behind. Ministry of Oud Oud Satin and Alexandria Fragrances Nostalgia have a close profile.
