What does Oud Galoré smell like?

It opens warm with cinnamon and Madagascan clove. In the heart, Egyptian geranium, iris and rose add a floral, powdery layer. It settles onto a resinous, smoky, woody base of oud, frankincense, sandalwood, cypriol and copaiba balsam.

Voters find both its longevity and sillage strong, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. It suits anyone who likes a dense, sweet-spicy oud, regardless of gender. Al Haramain Barakah and Montale Oud Edition have a close profile.
