What does Ambre Oud Royale smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, and most voters rate the staying power high. The sample is small, so this is only a rough impression. It sits comfortably on both men and women.

The notes read as one whole rather than in stages. Burmese and Thai oud, Mysore sandalwood and Siam benzoin form a smoky, earthy body. Indian cardamom and Indian pink pepper add spice, while cocoa absolute and amber absolute bring a sweet warmth; the animal, leathery side comes from Indian civet and ambergris. Stéphane Humbert Lucas Oud 777 and Al Waseef Oud Burmi have a close profile.
