The oud takes the heart quickly, smoky and slightly medicinal rather than barnyard, with the lavender softening into something closer to balm. As it settles, patchouli pushes earthy depth underneath while musk sands the edges, the leather impression strengthening as the oud breathes. Texture is dense and faintly tarry, projection is strong for the first hours then settles to a close warm cloud, the temperature reads hot and dim-lit. It evokes resin scraped off old wood.
Overall a masculine-leaning oud composition with a clear lavender-saffron opening signature.
