What does Notte d'oro smell like?

Notte d'oro lasts well and projects strongly; the sample is small, but most voters rate both qualities highly. As a unisex scent, it suits men and women alike.

It opens with grapefruit, orange and black cherry, fresh and fruity. The heart turns floral with rose, geranium and Jasminum auriculatum absolute. The base brings oud, patchouli, sandalwood and almond, settling into a spicy, resinous, lightly smoky warmth softened by sweet, gourmand tones. Tom Ford Oud Fleur and Memo Paris Luxor Oud have a close profile.
