Which Should You Buy?
If you're already flush with boozy-sweet scents, this one might feel a bit too familiar. However, for those new to the genre or seeking a solid alternative, Ashy Wood delivers a surprisingly complex sweet-oud with an interesting mineral edge.
This isn't your average fluffy gourmand; prepare for a darkly sweet chocolate biscuit hitting you with an oudy, earthy punch. It can be a love it or hate it affair, with some finding the dry down too smoky, but for those who get it, it's addictive and brilliant.
