What does Wild Rose Aoud smell like?

Calabrian bergamot and lemon give the opening a fresh lift. Turkish rose, Egyptian jasmine and Sumatran patchouli carry the heart. The base of vanilla, amber, musk and Nepalese oud sweetens it and settles into a warm, woody, slightly animal depth.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall and spring, with summer close behind. It suits daytime as well as nights out, and voters lean slightly towards reading it as feminine. Al Haramain Maaroof and Manos Gerakinis Anthem have a close profile.
