Carved Oud

Extrait de Parfum

Zaffiro Crafted Oud shares Carved Oud's earthy woods, but its description places oud up front rather than cardamom and cypress. Guaiac wood adds a drier accent through the middle. Patchouli, vetiver and musk connect the finish, while the original also highlights iris, sandalwood and vanilla.
