Saffron and leather give it a spicy, leathery frame, while frankincense and oud push it towards a resinous, woody depth. Fossilised amber adds sweetness and warmth. Sweet, spicy and woody accords sit side by side, and the animal, earthy and smoky tones make the character heavy and dark. It reads dense and warm rather than fresh or light. Montale Leather Patchouli and Dolce & Gabbana Velvet Desert Oud have a close profile.
