In plain words

The main accords of 1 Million Golden Oud are woody and fresh spicy. It opens with Saffron and Nutmeg, reveals Gurjan Balsam and Patchouli at its heart, and dries down to Leather and Oud. It lasts long and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
