What does Velvet Oudh (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity is rated as good, and most voters find it lasts a long time, though the number of votes is small, so that reading is tentative. Value for money is also rated favourably.

It opens with plum, lemon and saffron, then moves to cypriol, rose and elemi resin in the heart. The base holds oud, vanilla and patchouli. Creamy and leathery touches soften the smoky oud and the sweetness of the vanilla.
