What does Original Oud smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick leisure and evening wear, with business and night-out use following behind. It reads equally at home on men and women.

It opens with green cardamom and Bourbon geranium, then moves into orris absolute, gurjum balsam, woody and leathery notes. Ceylonese sandalwood and Laotian oud weigh heaviest in the base. The overall impression runs from a floral, green start to a spicy, resinous, earthy and leathery woodiness. Tiziana Terenzi Nero Oudh and Ensar Oud EO 1: Sultani have a close profile.
