Its longevity and sillage are rated as good, though the number of votes is small, so those ratings deserve some caution. It reads as serious and grown-up, and suits both men and women.
Frankincense and oud lead the scent, setting a woody, smoky base. Pimento adds a spicy warmth, while rose brings a floral, powdery softness that takes the edge off. All of it sits within an oriental frame. Mauboussin Cristal Oud and Roberto Cavalli Tiger Oud have a close profile.
