Homeros: Saigon

The scent reads as a single dense oud composition: Vietnamese, Chinese, Borneo and Papua oud sit side by side. Around them, Persian rose, osmanthus and saffron add floral and spicy warmth, while bergamot and currant bring a citrusy, fruity lift. Civet, castoreum and tobacco give it an animalic, leathery depth, and sandalwood, patchouli and ambergris settle it on a resinous, earthy base. It has been discontinued, and it suits those who like heavy oriental perfumes.
