Nostos is Etat Libre d'Orange playing it safe, delivering a powerful oud-and-leather scent that’s a dead ringer for many others. It's a love-or-hate affair, with its extreme projection and divisive "burnt rubber" or "hospital" notes polarising opinion.

Nostro Oud is Perfume Parlour's dupe of Etat Libre d'Orange's Nostos, translating its rose-suede-incense heart and oud-sandalwood base into an approachable everyday oud. It reads as a dark, smoky woody-floral with good bones, though it's a simpler interpretation of Nostos's more unconventional niche construction.
