What does Ombra Lirica smell like?
Cypriol, oud and Atlas cedar form its backbone, while nutmeg adds spice and gaiac wood brings a smoky, leathery edge. Somalian frankincense gives a resinous warmth, and Indonesian patchouli sets an earthy base. A citrus accord lightly brightens the dense woody structure.
Voters find both its longevity and its sillage strong. It is most often matched with nights out and evenings, followed by leisure time. Atelier des Ors Bois Sikar and Guerlain Oud Essentiel have a close profile.
