What does Ideal Oud smell like?

It opens with Bulgarian rose, Rosa centifolia absolute and pink pepper. In the heart, ylang-ylang, Laotian oud and saffron absolute add a spicy, woody weight to the floral sweetness. The base of papyrus, labdanum absolute and Bourbon vanilla absolute settles into a powdery, creamy, oriental warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and night out and evening wear lead the occasions. Votes for feminine and masculine are nearly even, so it reads either way. Giorgio Armani Armani Privé - Rouge Malachite and Widian Hili have a close profile.
