What does Oud Kinam smell like?
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick winter, fall and spring, with summer well behind. It leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. More voters call it masculine, though a fair share see it as feminine, so it sits between the two.
Bergamot and bitter orange give the opening some freshness. The heart brings Afghan rose, Ethiopian coffee and two vanillas, Bourbon and Papua New Guinean, which sweeten it. Thai and Chinese oud form a deep, woody base. Guerlain Shalimar Parfum Initial and Chanel Coco Noir (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
