What does Royal Oud smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good; voters place it mostly in the evening and on nights out, then in leisure time. It also finds a place at work and in daily wear, though the weight leans towards the evening.

It opens with nutmeg, rose absolute and frankincense. In the heart, oud, labdanum and patchouli build an earthy weight. In the base, sandalwood, amber, vanilla and musk soften it, leaving a powdery, creamy and slightly animalic warmth. Korloff Royal Oud Intense and Michele Bianchi Carskij Oud have a close profile.
