What does Azzure Aoud smell like?

Passion fruit, saffron and rose open the scent, with the fruit and spice running together. Patchouli, oud and benzoin form a woody, smoky heart, and leather, vanilla, cistus and amber close it on a sweet, animalic warmth.

Longevity and sillage are both rated very strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and summer gets very few votes. It leans towards evenings and nights out rather than the office. About half of voters read it as masculine. Taif Al-Emarat Taif T19 and Maison Crivelli Oud Maracujá have a close profile.
