Gavin –
Top marks for this one. I must say I wrote it off when I first sniffed it – “Yet another sweet sandalwood scent..” I thought. I wore it for the day just to see what it would be like and was blown away. Yes, its sandalwood and vanilla… again, the usual culprits but its got more to it that and I find hard to explain. Its like it has other spices in it, not the punchy kind, the sweet kind like cardamon and some other blend (I dont smell cardamon, Im just using an it as an example). That extra sweet spicy richness makes all the difference. It takes the almost generic smelling sandalwood/vanilla combo and raises it to new heights, it makes it not just a gourmand but a prestigious classy scent.
There is also this slight boozy whiskey like quailty to it that gives it the feel of something that has been refined with age; I guess that’s the oud part since this so called “oud scent” doesnt have any skank factor (as they say in the fragrance community).
It projects strongly for about 5 hours before gradually dieing down to a fairly noticable skin scent. I feel it falls unintentionally into the playboy kind of scent category, the more respectfull charming kind, but is elegant enough to get you off the hook for supposedly trying to be that way. Its meant to be unisex and I think it would smell just as alluring on the right kind of woman though I think a more floral variation may work better in the end.
Warning!!! If you dont like sweet scents you wont like this, or maybe it will convert you 😉 – this is very rich but also somewhat airy/gentle in the way it hits you, so its not cloying although in the very beginning you may think so. I can tell you now you wont get a scent this good, and this strong, for this price anywhere else I guarantee you that. I just love it when I find something really good and special for a bargain price. Top value.
