What does Sir Agarwood (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

The top shows smoky notes, green apple and caramel, the apple's crispness softened by the caramel's sweetness. In the heart, oriental spices, suede, tobacco and red rose come forward. The base settles into castoreum, exotic woods and oud, giving a resinous, leathery, woody finish.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. It is chosen mostly for evenings, nights out and leisure time, and rarely for the office. Ard Al Zaafaran Midnight Oud and Amouage Purpose 50 have a close profile.
