What does Versace pour Homme Oud Noir smell like?

It opens with pepper, bitter orange and neroli, which give a light freshness. In the heart, saffron, cardamom and frankincense bring a spicy, resinous warmth. The base settles on oud, patchouli and leatherwood, an earthy, woody ground, with sweetness softening the scent throughout.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, while summer is the least favoured. It leans towards evenings and nights out, and reads masculine and classic. Harry Lehmann Oud and Hugo Boss Boss Bottled Elixir have a close profile.
