What does Cherry Oud smell like?
It wears strong and projects well. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out, with far fewer choosing it for daily wear or the office. Feminine and masculine votes sit close together, so it reads as genuinely in between.
Cherry comes forward and gives the scent a fruity, sweet base. Turkish rose absolute and Bulgarian rose add a floral depth to that sweetness, while leathery notes and oud bring a spicy, oriental, smoky weight. French Avenue Elysian and Gucci Gucci Intense Oud have a close profile.
