Royal Oud Dello Yemen
Incense and frankincense open the composition with a smoky, resinous lift — dry church-air rather than heavy temple smoke, brightened by a small jolt of freesia that quickly recedes.

The heart turns balsamic and slightly medicinal as benzoin's vanilla-like warmth meets clove's sharp spice, with peach and lily of the valley adding unexpected softness around the edges. The drydown is where it settles into character: oud lends a dry, slightly leathery woodiness, amber pours warmth over it, and honey adds a thick, almost waxy sweetness with an animalic undertow. Projection is strong in the first hours, then mellows into a warm, sweet-smoky hum that lasts well into evening. Cool-weather material.
