What does Alma - Misterious Oud smell like?

It opens green and fresh with elemi resin, galbanum and bergamot, while cinnamon and pink pepper add a spicy edge. The heart of cypriol, styrax and labdanum turns resinous, smoky and earthy. In the base, vanilla and amber sweeten it, gaiac wood and Haitian vetiver keep it woody and dry, and musk leaves a soft finish. It has been discontinued; Amouage Reception and Mancera Hindu Kush have a close profile.
