Luxor kicks off with heavy spices and sweeter, animalic oud that is leathery, resinous, and earthy with some mustiness but by no means the full spectrum of the pungency of a real barnyard can have (which oud can give off). I found the oud to be central player throughout the opening to the drydown, with the oud going from earthy, musty, and woody to sweeter, nutty, and figgy at times. There was a fair amount of incense, myrrh, and cedar during the middle and early part of the drydown. The notes are listed as:
- top notes: cinnamon, leather, cardamom
- heart notes: incense, tobacco, myrrh, cedar
- base notes: Cambodian oud, Thai oud, cypriol, patchouli
