What does Impulse Oud smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated very strong, so it holds on skin for a long time. Autumn and winter lead, with spring not far behind, and it is mostly worn for nights out and evening plans. In character it sits between masculine and feminine.

It opens with vanilla, Bulgarian rose and violet, floral and sweet. In the heart, oud, rose and benzoin take over, and the scent turns creamy and powdery. It dries down to woody notes, musk and amber, warm, oriental and resinous.
