Is this fragrance suitable for office wear?+−
Because of its heavy sillage and dense, sweet profile, most find it better suited for evenings, winter leisure, or formal events. In a professional office setting, the potency of the honey and oud may be perceived as too intense.
How does the honey note affect the scent?+−
The Provençal honey acts as the primary balancing agent. It smooths over the sharp edges of the cedar and patchouli, giving the fragrance a "nectar" quality that makes the woods feel more like a dessert-like oriental than a dry forest scent.
Is Ôud Ambroisie more masculine or feminine?+−

How long does this fragrance typically last?+−
