What does Black Incense Malaki smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and night out lead the occasions. Half of the voters read it as masculine, with a good share calling it classic. Chopard Oud Malaki and Givenchy Oud Flamboyant have a close profile.

The scent works as a whole in a sweet oriental register. Spices and the resinous, smoky side of Somalian frankincense meet woody oud, while leather adds a leathery edge.
