What does Amber Aoud (Parfum) smell like?

It opens with bergamot, lime and lemon, and its heart carries May rose, fig and jasmine. In the base, oud, ambergris, benzoin, cinnamon and saffron take over; the floral side turns woody and oriental, with an animal edge underneath.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evenings or nights out; summer and daytime wear sit well behind. It reads somewhat masculine, though feminine votes are far from rare. Roja Parfums Aoud and Ministry of Oud Amber Oud have a close profile.
