What does Star Oud smell like?

It has no top, heart and base split and reads as a single whole: oud, sandalwood and precious woods build a woody core, cinnamon and cardamom add spicy warmth, and amber notes sweeten it. Gourmand and oriental accords bring the sweetness forward, while animal and smoky tones darken the character.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though from a small number of votes. Its dense, warm build suits cooler weather and works on anyone. Atkinsons The Other Side of Oud and Lattafa Oud Mood have a close profile.
