What does Amber Intense / Oud Amber Intense smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out, while summer gets very few votes. Although it is unisex, voters read it as more masculine than feminine, though a sizeable share call it feminine.

It opens with cinnamon, black pepper, saffron absolute and orange, a spicy-citrus warmth. In the heart, rose absolute, jasmine absolute and patchouli add a soft floral note. The base of benzoin, Peru balsam, musk and oud settles into a sweet, creamy, smoky resin.
