What does Oro Nero smell like?

It lasts strongly and projects well. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out, with business and daily wear further behind. Though unisex, voters read it as more masculine than feminine.

It opens with the citrus of bergamot and orange alongside clove and saffron. In the heart, cedar, sandalwood and patchouli lay a woody, earthy floor, with ylang-ylang softening it. As it dries, vanilla amber and leather take over, settling into a sweet, resinous, slightly smoky warmth. Mancera Black to Black and Amouage Interlude Man have a close profile.
