Mancera Intensitive Aoud Gold

Mostly dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer. Underneath that, the flower itself, ranging from jammy to green depending on the blend.

It opens on lemon and water notes, moves through rose, guaiac wood and teak wood, and settles on precious woods, white musk and ambergris.

• lemon: sharp, bright citrus. The most cutting of the citrus notes
• rose: the flower itself, landing anywhere between jammy and fresh green depending on the variety used

It lasts well and carries into a room.

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