This one could be on the oud collection that Comptoir launched a time ago, since this fragrance is all about oud as much as it is about spices. Or, may I say, spice, since the spice which is a star here is saffron. Sultan opens with the synthetic oud smell, woody, sweet, and ambery. After some minutes you notice the rose aroma, which is minty and tart and green. The rose doesn't last so much and is followed by a spicy, powdery and boozy aroma which is delicious. At the base, the fragrance turns into amber and patchouli, which is quite interesting, since the way this fragrance develops makes the oud be more of a top note instead of its usual behavior of going through the opening to the base. A fine crafted fragrance, a very good one from Comptoir.
