What does Oud Sultan / Oud Sultan smell like?

Voters rate its longevity as very strong and its sillage as strong. The sample is small, but the scores are high and it is rated as good value. It suits anyone wanting a distinct, far-reaching scent that doesn't lean masculine or feminine.

It opens with frankincense, patchouli and Bulgarian rose, so the resin and earth show from the start. In the heart, nutmeg, cistus and sandalwood bring spice and wood forward. The dry-down rests on gaiac wood, labdanum and amber, a warm, smoky, oriental base.
