What does Homeros (Parfum) smell like?

It opens with bergamot, blue cypress and cedarwood alongside animalic civet and castoreum. In the heart, Persian rose, saffron, osmanthus and orange blossom add a floral softness. The base settles into oud, patchouli, cocoa and tobacco, which gives it an earthy, resinous and leathery character.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evening and night out, though it also works for leisure. Most voters read it as masculine, but it is a unisex perfume. Its profile is close to Ensar Oud Homeros: Saigon and Areej Le Doré Oud Zhen.
