The base is amber and vanilla over patchouli, with sandalwood and clove in the general structure adding warm-spicy dimension. The composition reads inspired by oud-rose perfumery without literally containing oud — the saffron-patchouli-amber triangle does the suggestive work. Suited to fall and winter, evening wear; ornate, indoor-warm, the perfume equivalent of a brocaded interior.
