What does Attar Mysterious Oud smell like?

Longevity is rated strong, with most voters giving it a high score, and sillage is rated good. The vote count is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. As a unisex scent, it suits both men and women.

The top opens fresh with bergamot, orange and cardamom. In the heart, rose, jasmine, myrrh, clove and cinnamon add a floral, spicy warmth. The base settles into oud, labdanum, vanilla and sandalwood, creamy and resinous, with a faint animal edge in the background. Mysterious Oud (Extrait de Parfum) and Oud Maximus have a close profile.
