What does Kamel Oud (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

It reads as one whole: the warm spice of saffron and cardamom meets the smoky dryness of cade juniper wood and gaiac wood. Rose and raspberry soften the dry, animalic edge a little, while labdanum deepens the oriental side.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evenings and nights out leading the occasions. It reads more masculine than feminine, though it is a unisex release. Pryn Parfum Rosuerrier and Ajmal Taaj Al Raas have a close profile.
