What does Amber Oud smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good and find the value for money high. The number of votes is small, so this view is not yet settled. It sits comfortably on both men and women.

The top is bergamot, lime and lemon, which gives a fresh, bright start. In the heart, jasmine, May rose, fig and ylang-ylang add a floral, fruity softness. The base settles into oud, benzoin, patchouli, saffron and cinnamon, leaning spicy, woody and oriental.
