What does Oud Sinharaja smell like?

Most voters find its longevity and sillage good. Spring is the most chosen season, followed by fall and summer. Leisure, business and evening wear get similar votes, and masculine and feminine votes are almost even.

The citrus top is sharpened by cardamom. In the heart, frangipani, magnolia and jasmine sambac add a creamy, floral softness. The base of labdanum, Atlas cedar and the ouds is sweet, resinous and woody. Bortnikoff Amber Cologne and Acqua di Parma Zafferano have a close profile.
