What does Pur Oud smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick winter and autumn, and see it as an evening or night-out scent. It leans masculine in character, and many also call it classic.

Assam oud dominates; earthy, leathery and animal tones give it an edge, while spicy and oriental accords add warmth. Ambrettolide and Helvetolide® soften that dense core and smooth its rough edges. Kemi 'Ilm and Sulaym HM Badshah have a close profile.
