What does Oud - Saffron Rose Absolute smell like?

It opens with saffron and rose, giving a spicy, sweet floral start. In the heart, labdanum and frankincense add a resinous weight. The base of oud and sandalwood settles into a woody, earthy and smoky ground, with an oriental thread running through it all.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small. Voters lean toward leisure and night-out wear, with evenings following behind. Dior Oud Ispahan and Hugo Boss Boss Bottled Oud Saffron have a close profile.
