Not a "Chypre with a bit of Oud," but rather Oud, perfectly operating within a "Chypre frame"...

Initially a loosely woven jasmine-indolic blanket, a hint of fruitiness detectable. Later, typical "osmanthus-apricot" takes center stage...

Calm opening. Blue fern ink meets light chamomile tea and subtly balsamic wood resin. Later, lotus takes center stage.

Neatly minty-woody Oud, with an ethereal twist, tightly bound with lots of incense resins, resinous galore, slightly citrusy...

Character scent, take two. Unusual opening. A large amount of cloves, roasted in a clay oven on earthenware. Beautiful roasted notes..
