From your scent profile
Zara Elevated Oud is a sweet, spicy oud scent that sets a bright citrus opening against a woody, slightly leathery depth, and it suits fall and winter evenings best.
Skunky's take: Comes alive when it gets cold; fall and winter are its seasons.

What does Elevated Oud smell like?
It opens with bergamot, lemon and cardamom, a bright, spicy citrus start. In the heart, vanilla and praliné pull the scent towards a creamy, sweet side. The base of oud, patchouli and sandalwood settles into a woody, faintly animal and leathery ground.
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring in the background, and the scent leans towards night-out and evening wear. It reads masculine. Hajar and Alexandria have a close profile.
