24 Carat Pure Gold
24 Carat Pure Gold shares Nepal Aoud's oud-and-saffron direction, adding cinnamon where the original highlights nutmeg. Rose softens the middle. Incense adds a smoky accent to its leather, amber and vanilla finish, though the sources don't establish a precise difference in strength.
