What does In the Mood for Oud smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring next and summer trailing. It leans towards evening and leisure wear. Votes for masculine and feminine are almost level, so it doesn't lean to one gender.

It opens with bergamot, and the heart holds papyrus, saffron, oud and raspberry. Tonka bean and vanilla sweeten the base. The animal, smoky side of the oud meets the spice of saffron, while raspberry and vanilla soften that rougher edge. LPDO Excentrique Oud and Juliette Has A Gun Another Oud have a close profile.
