What does Oud Cologne smell like?

Juniper and black pepper give it a green, spicy edge, while oud, leather and myrrh form a resinous, earthy and smoky base. Bourbon vanilla softens that rough character a little, and white sage keeps the green side alive. The overall impression is dry, woody and oriental, with the fruity accord staying in the background. Amouage Epic Man and Maison Margiela Under the Stars have a close profile.
