Which Should You Buy?
Tom Ford Oud Fleur: a divisive journey into dark, dirty rose and animalic oud. Some declare it a masterpiece, a hauntingly beautiful blend. Others find it harsh and underwhelming, questioning its oud credentials entirely. For a scent now discontinued, it certainly leaves a memorable impression, for better or worse.
Copycat's Oud Fleur follows Tom Ford's rich rose-oud-resin structure closely in concept, but the resinous myrrh-labdanum base reads thinner and less opulent than the original's dense, honeyed depth, giving a lighter, less layered oud floral.
