Qaed Al Fursan 50ml

Saffron and pineapple open it, an odd pairing that works because the saffron keeps the fruit from reading as sweet. Jasmine and fir balsam carry the middle, resinous and green rather than floral. The base is oud wood and cedarwood over amber, dry and persistent. This is the 2016 original, not Unlimited and not Untamed, which are different fragrances sold under the same name. Cold weather and evenings.
