What does Darwish smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. The spicy, woody build suits cooler, heavier weather. It leans neither masculine nor feminine and reads as unisex.
Oud comes first. Leather, tobacco, myrrh, cedarwood and gaiac wood then form a woody, smoky heart. In the base, vanilla, amber, labdanum, frankincense and benzoin add a resinous warmth, with the vanilla lightly sweetening it.
