What does Mysterious Oud smell like?

Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, and it suits leisure, evenings and daily wear. Votes on masculine and feminine are close, so it leans neither way.

It opens with fresh, resinous elemi resin, then softens through labdanum, jasmine and cedarwood. The base is led by oud, sandalwood, ambergris and musk, leaving a spicy, earthy and powdery woodiness. Al Haramain Rose Oud and Brecourt Oud Santal have a close profile.
