What does Omega smell like?

Omega's longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, with winter close behind and summer trailing. It leans towards leisure and business wear, and gets votes for evening and night out as well. More voters call it feminine than masculine, though a good share see it as masculine.

It opens with the spice of Egyptian cumin. In the heart, violet, iris and jasmine give a floral, powdery face, while rosewood pulls it towards wood. The base brings vanilla sweetness and white musk softness together with leather, Virginia cedar, frankincense and the smoky, resinous weight of oud. The balance between floral, sweet and woody sides defines its character.
