Sophisticated and elegant.
This one is quite interesting. I am not that much into rose-oud fragrances, but I must admir that this one is really nice. It opens up fruity (peachy) with spices like cinnamon and saffron. In the mid you get the rose and in the drydown you get the vanilla, oud (not skanky oud) and very nice patchouli.
It is very unisex and sexy and the performance is really good. It lasts and lasts!

Scent
Shifting from bright spicy to sweet fruity, this unique creamy spicy-floral Fall fragrance is nicely balanced by a gentle earthy-woody base.

Oud is very subtle here, neatly crafted. You get fruits, rose, saffron and vanilla. Wear it on colder autumn or winter nights, longevity +.
