What does Black Kinam smell like?

The scent reads as a single piece. Oud and cade juniper set a smoky base, and tobacco sweetens it. Rose otto and immortelle add a floral, green side, while black ambergris and Vietnamese musk lend a creamy, slightly animal softness. The oriental, spicy character dominates.

Longevity and sillage are rated strong, and although the vote count is small, most voters score both high. With its dense, warm build it suits cooler weather best. It works for men and women alike, was released in 2023 and has been discontinued. Tom Ford Tobacco Oud and Xerjoff Zanzibar / Najaf have a close profile.
