What does Sweet Agarwood smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Voters place it mostly in leisure and evening wear, with night-out use close behind. On character, masculine leads, though a clear share also reads it as feminine.

Coumarin and labdanum give a sweet opening. In the heart, cistus, labdanum and ambergris add a resinous, animal depth. The base is led by vanilla absolute, amber and benzoin, and the spicy, woody accords keep the sweetness from turning soft, with a leathery edge. Duftanker MGO Duftmanufaktur Labdanum and Francesca Bianchi Byzantine Amber (Extrait de Parfum) have a close profile.
