Brutal stainless steel meets soft suede. Tobacco meets oakmoss. Saffron meets patchouli. Oud meets sandalwood. An explosion of honey-like alcoholic tobacco is the opening of this olfactory masterpiece from Russian Adam. Gently savoring notes of syrupy tonka bean, vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon, the robust drydown quickly follows. A remarkably smooth, slightly animalic and earthy combination of rich Indian oud, sandalwood, patchouli and leather accords is what sticks with the wearer for the rest of the day, and given that this is Areej Le Dore, the quality is palpable.
