Opening on this one is heavy on that barny oud but the lotus is still preasent from the start it just needs bit of time. Saffron is spinkled on top to give it bit spicy feel. On scale of how barny the oud is its quite in the middle its barny but not very fecal barny.
On the drydown the oud turns into more earthy kinda leaving the barn behaind and here the lotus starts to bloom. Its like you are being transported from barn yard with toughts of lotus to somewhere peaceful where the lotus is fully blooming. The saffron was left on that barn yard. Here you only get the earthy oud and amazing lotus.
