The neroli surprise ending
Opens very with a generic woodsy feel (in a good way. I like it). The oud has an almost incense quality, maybe because it's blended with the cloves and pepper. The lemongrass gives it a bit of zing and freshness that prevents it from getting too musty. I'm not getting any florals.
After it warms up I some some powdery orris root and a hint of jasmine.
I really love the depth of the dry down. The neroli sweetens it up and keeps the drydown from being musty. The drydown has more of the jasmine too. I'm kind of surprised to find the neroli in the dry down. I expected to find it more near the opening.
The sillage is nuclear and it lasts forever.
