It opens on licorice-kissed anise seed and amyris, settles into an earthy patchouli-tonka heart, and closes on a warm sandalwood-cedarwood-vanilla base. Fragrantica reviews genuinely disagree on performance: some call it “a powerhouse” with “monster longevity,” others note it's more average. The 14% attributed to oud reads as gurjun balsam's smoky-ambery character, not real agarwood.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eScent Character\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWoody\u003c\/strong\u003e: 43%\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSweet\u003c\/strong\u003e: 29%\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSpicy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14%\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSmoky \u0026amp; Ambery (Gurjun Balsam)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14%\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTranslation:\u003c\/em\u003e Woody-sweet dominant.
