What does Iconic Oud smell like?

It opens with rose and bergamot: the bergamot brightens the first impression while the rose adds a floral warmth. In the heart, violet and leather take over, the violet bringing a powdery softness and the leather pulling the scent towards a smoky, leathery side. The base is dominated by oud, vanilla and sandalwood; the resinous, spicy oud is sweetened by the vanilla, and the sandalwood gives it a woody footing. The overall impression is sweet, oriental and dark.
