Nice try
In addition to his work as church music director, my former choir director was also an honorary professor at the Musikhochschule Lübeck. He once told us that it was only by the way they entered the building that it was possible to immediately distinguish the aspiring singers, for example, from the organists becoming. Later.
With a little goodwill, it actually smells a bit like oud, latently cheesy. Of course, this provokes thoughts of the declaredly oud-free 'NOOUD' by Baruti, with which 'Oud Wood & Amyris' can compete neither in terms of volume nor self-confidence. Yes, the camouflage oud quickly recedes in a stealthy way in favour of a peppered and cedar-ventilated sandal interim cream, which appears gently sweaty.
After about an hour, a mixture of cedar-dominated, lame wood creeps around, which is to be given a hint of oud by means of a subtle acidity. Unfortunately this is only partly possible, the emphasis is too much on the light wood, whose aroma also touches the border to artificial wood. As we proceed, we can only suspect a hint of a cowshed note directly on the skin, which hastily and shamefacedly was slightly sweetened. Nice try.
The fragrance is therefore particularly exciting as a didactic play about how differently non-ud can be implemented. 'NOOUD', to take the picture above, is the singer with his legs apart and walking along loudly and 'Oud Wood & Amyris' a particularly shy organist who prefers the side entrance to not be addressed.
The durability is de facto barely six hours, because after that there is only a small amount of plain wood left, which I would now certainly consider unsupported synthetic; reminds me of the MGOs. In addition, a few molecules of a diffuse creaminess with a bitter impact wander around.
An ugly exit. Once again, 100BON is unable to grow with a common pound of natural fragrance perfumery: rich base notes.
Conclusion: Well, a nice try. And obviously 100BONs are not necessarily cream-heavy.
I thank Bellemorte for the sample.
PS: I have simply assumed that this fragrance does not use any real oud, but tries a replica. Anyway, it's not mentioned anywhere.
