Royal Oud - 517 EDP
Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Royal Oud EDP
Royal Oud by Creed is a sophisticated woody scent that whispers 'old money' rather than shouting, making it a firm favourite for those who want elegance without the typical 'oud beast'. Some find it utterly captivating, while others believe its performance doesn't justify the price - you decide.

Our Verdict - Royal Oud - 517 EDP
No. 517 references Creed's Royal Oud, pitching cedar and sandalwood against a touch of oud and spice. The woody backbone is recognisable, but the dupe's oud reads thinner and more synthetic, and it lacks the dry, mineral cedar Creed is known for.

Casual
Its refined woody and musky profile, combined with generally moderate projection, makes it highly suitable for office and formal wear. While elegant, its subtle nature means it can be dressed down for casual occasions, yet it lacks the freshness for sport.
