    The opening has an herbal sharpness to it, a green quality that quickly settles. Then the sweetness arrives, warm and golden. Myrrh gives it a slightly medicinal quality. That's the tell.Smoke and Mirrors
    It's not common. Oud gets used as a statement, something loud enough to announce itself across a room. This one arrives quiet and stays longer than you think. The smoke is warm, not aggressive.Under the Stars
