Oud and rose with strong masculine tendancies
I'll do a proper review later, but I wanted to get some description down since there's no information here.
This is a very, very strong scent. It opens with a powerful, smoky Oud and Taif Rose. After an hour or so it settles on the skin. The rose and Oud are still prominent but there is now a really lovely woody base to it. I've seen this scent compared favorably to By Killian's Oud Musk. After a couple of hours the woody base is paired with spices (saffron maybe?). If you like Oud this is great. It has a very masculine vibe to it but can definitely be worn by a woman, though perhaps a woman may prefer Al Rehab Bakhoor Al Bahrain which is more fruity but still has that smoky oud.
Use a light hand, a little of this goes a very long way and it can be unpleasant in it's strength and intensity if you over apply.
