Aoud Greedy

Aoud Greedy by Montale is a woody, musky fragrance, with floral, amber and citrus touches around that core. Pierre Montale composed it, it came out in 2013, and it is worn by anyone.

Lemon gives a short, sharp burst of brightness at the start. Licorice is the distinctive note: an aniseed-like sweetness that fits the greedy of the name and adds a dark, candied edge. Soft floral notes sit in the middle, while patchouli and vetiver bring an earthy, rooty dryness. White musk and amber wrap it all in a warm, clean, skin-like finish that softens the darker elements.

The mix of sweet licorice, earthy woods and musk suits cooler weather, autumn and winter evenings especially, and occasions where a warm, enveloping scent feels right. It will appeal to someone who enjoys woody fragrances with a sweet, slightly unusual twist, and who likes musk as a comforting, soft background rather than a sharp, clean one.
