What does Genius Oud Mystique smell like?

Its sillage is rated strong, and most voters find it high, though the small number of votes means this is only a rough impression. Being unisex, it doesn't lean toward either gender.

The top notes bring Turkish rose, saffron and passion fruit, with fruity notes keeping the start lively. In the heart, patchouli, benzoin and oud take over, while labdanum, leather, amber and vanilla sweeten and soften the base. The overall feel has floral and green touches, but the oriental character is what leads.
