When applied to the crook of my elbow, the scent reads as literally just oudh; less sharp than in other Alkemias, and softened, sweetened, warmed further by the musk (and time), but oudh nonetheless. On my wrists, however, the other listed notes become noticeable; lightly sweet and resinous amber, tangy ambergris, and a backdrop of dry and aromatic sandalwood, which reads much lighter than the oudh.
Smells like an ancient classic – not in a bad way at all. Huge avid lover of incense – and I hangout with sage and Palo.. this is a nice musky antique feel. Reminds me of a chest with old photos and simpler times.
