Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud
This one is a divisive take on oud. Some say it's a masterful, exotic blend, others find it lacking in true oud character and too fleeting. If you're after a smooth, smoky amber experience with an eastern twist, it might just be your cup of tea.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Blue Oud
A solid, spicy rose-oud bomb that's hard to ignore. It’s got a big presence that demands attention, but might not be everyone’s cup of tea for its intensity and lack of sweetness.

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent spicy and oud accords, along with its initial strong projection, make it unsuitable for an office environment. However, this same intensity lends itself well to formal events and date nights where making a statement is desired.
