What does Oud Rosewood (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with summer the least chosen season. It is favoured mostly for evenings and nights out; more voters read it as masculine, though a sizeable share call it feminine.

The notes read as one whole rather than a top, heart and base. A woody, spicy line leads, with an oriental character settling over it. Smoky, leathery and animal tones stay in the background, while raspberry and quince add a fruity sweetness. Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade and Maison Crivelli Cuir Infrarouge have a close profile.
