Oud Wasat by Tiziana Terenzi hits the skin with a loud, sharp blast of citrus and heavy florals, dominated by geranium and bitter grapefruit.

On cold winter evenings or during formal outdoor gatherings, a single spray projects across several feet and clings tenaciously to wool coats and heavy fabrics. It stays dark, spicy, and noticeably animalic throughout its long life on skin.
