What does oM smell like?

Pepper, cedar and petitgrain give a spicy, green first impression. In the heart, orange blossom, neroli and chrysanthemum add a soft floral layer. As it dries, oud, incense and sandalwood take over, and the scent turns woody, oriental and smoky.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small. It reads comfortably on both men and women. Amouage Epic 56 Woman and Di Ser Kyara have a close profile.
