What does Amber Oud smell like?

Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind. It is chosen mostly for evenings and nights out. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Feminine and masculine votes are close, so it reads as genuinely unisex.

It opens with frankincense and bergamot, then patchouli, oud and rose take the heart. In the base, myrrh, labdanum, vanilla and ambergris sweeten it, with woody and smoky touches in the background. The overall impression is warm, spicy and earthy.
