What does Oud Yusuf (2024) (Pure Parfum) smell like?

The scent reads as a single whole rather than a top-heart-base sequence. Bhutanese, Thai and Cambodian oud with oud resin lay a woody, resinous and animalic ground. Spices, mandarin orange and blood orange brighten it, apricot and honeydew melon add a fruity sweetness, and orange blossom and May rose bring a soft floral side.

Voters rate both its longevity and its sillage as strong. It suits those who want a dense, noticeable fragrance that leaves a clear trail. Ensar Oud Oud Yusuf: Kyara and Tola Gulbadan have a close profile.
