What does Oud & Bergamot smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick fall, then spring, and it fits everything from daily wear and the office to evenings out. Most voters read it as more masculine, though it is rated as unisex.
The citrus is bright throughout: bergamot and orange give it a fresh start. Oud and cedarwood lay a dry, spicy, lightly resinous base under that freshness, while praliné softens the woody structure and adds a rounded sweetness.
