What does Papyrus Oud/71 smell like?

It is built on musk, Indian papyrus, oud and Somalian frankincense. Oud and frankincense set a resinous, smoky backbone, the papyrus keeps the woody side dry, and the musk softens the edges. Spicy and oriental accents add warmth.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is worn for evenings, leisure and nights out. In the character votes, masculine and classic lead. Initio Oud for Greatness and Cartier Oud & Musc have a close profile.
