Clive Christian L: Woody Oriental is a men's fragrance that opens with a green, citrusy freshness and settles into a sweet, spicy, resinous woodiness; it has been discontinued.
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick spring and autumn, with summer and winter further behind. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, and extends into evenings and nights out. Most voters read it as masculine, though some call it classic or modern.
Lemon, bergamot and mandarin orange give the opening a fresh, citrusy lift, while peppery notes add spice. In the heart, geranium, lavender and jasmine form a floral-green bridge. In the base, maple syrup sweetens it, and tobacco, amber and Canary Islands juniper add a woody, resinous depth. Anfas Salam and Al Haramain Dubai share a close profile.
