Maison Alhambra Dark Oud

Mostly warm baking spice, in the cinnamon and clove family. Underneath that, cool and green, like herbs crushed between your fingers.

It opens on cardamom, pepper and brazilian rosewood, moves through vetiver, oud and sandalwood, and settles on tonka bean, vanilla and ambergris.

• cardamom: cool green spice with an aromatic, almost soapy lift
• pepper: dry and warming, like freshly cracked black pepper

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
