Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Immortel EDP
Divisive and distinctive, Oud Immortel sparks strong opinions. Some find it a fresh, bright take on oud, others a synthetic mess, or a clone of popular fragrances. It's not a safe blind buy, but for those it clicks with, it's a signature scent.
Statement
Our Verdict - Oud Immortel - 492 EDP
Inspired by Byredo Oud Immortel, this budget take leans on the same limoncello-incense-oud shape but flattens fast - the smoky woods arrive louder and thinner, fading to a simple tobacco-oakmoss base within a few hours rather than Byredo's slow-building depth.
