What does No. 2 Pure Attar smell like?

The notes read as a single whole rather than a top, heart and base. Amber and benzoin lay down a sweet, resinous ground, while saffron and leather add a spicy, leathery edge. Indian, Laotian, Thai and Borneo oud give it a woody depth, and rose and peony carry the floral side softly. The overall character is oriental and creamy.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small. Its dense, warm, resinous build suits cooler weather and evening wear. It leans neither masculine nor feminine. Amouage Overture 41 and Eutopie No. 10 have a close profile.
