Which Should You Buy?
A modern icon that balances exotic oud with creamy woods and warm spice, Oud Wood is both inviting and quietly commanding. Its luxurious blend exudes sophistication without brashness, perfect for those who want depth without heaviness.
Tom Ford's Oud Wood is the fragrance that introduced Western audiences to accessible oud, and Eden's No.240 follows the rosewood-cardamom-into-oud-sandalwood structure closely, but with a thinner, sharper woody accord that fades well ahead of the original's famously smooth, long-lasting drydown.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Oud Wood's warmth, spiciness, and woody-resinous richness shine in cooler weather, making it ideal for fall and winter. Its smooth, less animalic oud and subtle spice render it wearable in spring, but the depth can overwhelm in high summer heat.
Occasions
Its refined, luxurious woody-spicy blend is perfect for formal and evening occasions, but its smooth character and moderate sillage make it versatile enough for upscale date nights and even understated office wear. Not suitable for sports due to depth and richness.
Seasons
The warm woody-spice combination reads best in cooler months, losing appeal in summer heat.
Occasions
Refined and warm enough for both office and evening wear, without being overly intense for daytime use.
