What does Oud Sultani 1975 smell like?

It reads as one dense piece: the resinous, woody body of oud gains an animal depth from Nepalese nard and castoreum. Turkish rose, iris and violet leaf add a powdery floral layer, while peach and Bourbon vanilla soften the sweetness. Tonkin musk and two Jasminum species keep the flowers rich.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, though the number of votes is small, so treat these as tentative. With its spicy oriental character it suits those who like heavy, concentrated fragrances. Ensar Oud Oud Sultani: Brunei Kynam and Oud Sultani: Kelantan share a close profile.
