What does Oud Gourmand smell like?

Those who rated it find both longevity and sillage good, though the number of votes is small. No season or occasion votes are available, but the composition reads as unisex, not leaning clearly masculine or feminine.

The top notes of orange and bergamot give a brief freshness. Towards the heart, bourbon vanilla, rose, caramel and coconut milk take over, making it sweeter and softly gourmand. Oud, vanilla and amber notes form the base. Floral, spicy and woody accords add depth to the sweetness. Ard Al Zaafaran Hayaati Oud and Mehira Rose Layali have a close profile.
