Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, and most voters pick autumn and winter, while summer plays a minor part. It is chosen mostly for nights out and evenings. It sits between masculine and feminine, with votes split fairly evenly.
A floral, sweet core carries a spicy, woody, oriental feel. Saffron brings the spice, rose the floral softness, and oud the earthy, smoky depth. Its profile is close to Hugo Boss Boss Bottled Oud Saffron and Erbario Toscano Zafferano Rosa.
