What does Black Oud Extreme Amber smell like?

It opens with frankincense and spices, with ambergris and oud at the heart. The base brings cedar, sandalwood, vanilla, castoreum and civet, giving the woody, resinous structure a sweet, animalic warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evenings or nights out; few choose it for the office. Votes split between masculine and feminine, so it moves easily across both. LM Parfums Black Oud and Liquides Imaginaires Fortis have a close profile.
