Cognac, saffron and honey open warm, sweet and faintly boozy. In the heart, May rose and ylang-ylang carry the floral side while cinnamon brings the spice forward. The base of patchouli, frankincense, oud and sandalwood settles the scent onto a woody, smoky ground. A synthetic edge runs through the accords, and the sweetness is held in check by spice and smoke. M. Micallef Aoud and Pascal Morabito Gold Edition Oud have a close profile.
