    The jasmine and ambergris in the base make this feel less predictable than a typical oud-rose composition. The saffron keeps it sharp, the jasmine keeps it soft, and the ambergris makes it linger.Wabi Sabi
    Oud Wood is a deliberate choice to wear oud without the aggression. It smells like money and restraint in equal measure, more boardroom than bazaar.Oud Wood
