What does Oud Oriental Saba smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though few voters have weighed in, so those ratings are tentative. It reads as a dense, warm scent that suits both men and women.
It opens with saffron, black pepper and blackcurrant bud for a spicy start. In the heart, cedarwood, cinnamon and Roseolate® add a floral, sweet warmth. The base of oud, sandalwood, amberwood, cistus and Cetalox® settles into a creamy, earthy, woody foundation.
