What does Dark Saffron Nights smell like?

Voters rate both longevity and sillage as strong, though the sample is small, so this is not definitive. It reads masculine, and its heavy, dense build makes itself felt through the day.

Black saffron, nutmeg and cardamom open on a spicy note. In the heart, amber, rose and gaiac wood sweeten it and settle it onto a woody base. At the bottom, oud, black leather and castoreum add an animal, smoky, leathery darkness. Floral and fruity touches show in the accords too. Some may find it closed and oriental.
