What does Darkoud smell like?

Its sillage is rated as good by those who voted, though the small number of votes means this is not a firm picture. It is described as unisex, and its woody, oriental build suits those who like warmer, denser scents.

The top is a spicy start of saffron, cardamom and bergamot. In the heart, geranium, tuberose absolute and rose absolute add a floral layer, while the base of patchouli, Assam oud and myrrh sets a woody, sweet, oriental ground. Tom Ford Oud Voyager and Birkholz Amber Intense have a close profile.
