What does Touch of Oud smell like?

Dark woods and nappa leather form the backbone; benzoin softens them with a sweet, resinous warmth, pear blossom adds a light floral touch, and silver fir cools the woody side. The accords also carry an oriental, spicy note.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. Voters pick it mostly for leisure, evenings and nights out, while office and daily wear trail behind. Being unisex, it sits comfortably on men and women alike. Perfumes with a close profile include Victor de Manoz Mystic Oud and Giorgio Armani Privé - Cuir Noir.
