What does Armani Privé - Cuir Majesté smell like?

It opens with osmanthus and frankincense, a floral sweetness over a resinous warmth. In the heart, May rose absolute and leather come forward, the softness of the rose meeting the dry, smoky edge of the leather. The base of oud and vanilla finishes it: the woody weight of the oud is sweetened by the vanilla, leaving a spicy, oriental trail.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, though spring isn't far behind. It is mostly tied to nights out and evenings. It leans masculine, but the feminine vote is sizeable too. Pink Sugar Black Sugar and Pascal Morabito Noir have a close profile.
