What does Oud (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with mandarin orange, cardamom and bergamot, bright and lightly spiced. In the heart, osmanthus, peach and passion fruit sweeten it. The base brings oud, leather, tobacco and frankincense, and the fruity sweetness settles onto a smoky, woody, leathery ground.
Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, while summer trails well behind. It leans towards nights out and evenings. It tilts slightly masculine yet reads as unisex. Clive Christian C: Woody Leather and Emir Spicy Tobacco have a close profile.
