What does Oud smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. Voters lean towards leisure and daily wear, with evening, nights out and business also getting votes. It reads as suited to both men and women.

The top opens fresh with Douglas fir, yuzu and grapefruit. In the heart, clove, ginger and pepper add spice, softened by osmanthus and Rosa alba. The base settles on oud, sandalwood and labdanum, woody and resinous.
