Oudyssee

Sage and lavender open over two peppers, which is rare for an oud. Leather and amber hold the heart, then mate and oakmoss pull the base towards the bitter and the dry.

Explorer

Bergamot, vetiver then patchouli follow one green, earthy line, tightened by ambroxan and akigalawood. Leather is only a dry texture here: a straightforward aromatic wood with a long trail.
