What does Oud in Oak smell like?

The notes read as a single whole: cardamom and saffron bring the spice, cistus absolute and myrrh add a resinous depth, and grapefruit lightens the weight a little. The woody, smoky, spicy and green accords lead, while the animal and synthetic touches stay in the background.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good. Most pick it for leisure and evenings, with night outs close behind. The vote count is small, so these impressions are tentative.
