What does Orange Aoud smell like?

The citrus freshness of bergamot meets spices and Malayan oud at the top. In the heart, patchouli and violet bring a floral, earthy turn. The base of Mysore sandalwood, leather, white musk and amber dries down woody, leathery and sweetly oriental.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. Votes for feminine and masculine character sit close together, so it wears comfortably on either. Mancera Black Prestigium and Mancera Aoud Exclusif have a close profile.
