By the editors · 2 min readApple opens crisp and slightly tart, setting a bright counterpoint against the medicinal oud that arrives within minutes. The oud carries a band-aid edge, amplified by synthetic musks that sharpen rather than soften its profile. Sandalwood emerges in the heart, lending a dry creaminess that stretches the oud’s resin across the wear, while amber resin and vanilla slowly pool underneath, adding rounded sweetness without overt gourmand heft. Mid-stage stays linear: fruit recedes, smoke thickens, and the accord hovers between pharmacy and souk. Dry-down is mostly sandalwood-cushioned oud, faintly powdered by vanillic amber, projecting at arm’s length for six hours before settlingating into a skin-wrapper musk. Cool evenings and layered clothing suit its smoky density best.
