Ummagumma by FZOTIC is a deeply layered gourmand amber with a smoky, incense-laden backbone. It opens with a powerful, slightly bitter cocoa note intertwined with saffron and carnation, creating an intense, almost medicinal sweetness that some find overwhelming or cloying. The drydown reveals a complex interplay of leather, frankincense, labdanum, and olibanum, veiled in a warm amber and tonka base, with the chocolate fading into a subtle, dry afternote rather than dominating the composition. Despite this, the fragrance remains heavily resinous and smoky, with a notable tobacco presence that lends depth and a certain earthiness. It performs exceptionally well in terms of longevity, often lasting beyond 24 hours, and it develops a moderate to strong sillage, though many reviewers note it can be faint at close range or feel patchy on certain skin types. The scent balances gourmand sweetness with dry, aromatic elements, making it best suited for dark, winter evenings and cold weather perfumes. It's unisex in appeal but heavily leans masculine in effect.
