Oriental Dream
I've been trying Aaron Terence Hughes fragrances and I've had the chance to try quite a few, this one was one of the ones I'd say are worth a review online to get more people to purchase.

It's quite resinous and reminds me a bit of Amouage Interlude Man in that quality. It's very performant and the Oud is extremely apperent in all points of its time on the skin. The longevity is around 12 hours on my skin (most fragrances don't even last 5) and the projection is amazing, like most aaron terence hughes fragrances. It projects every well for at least 6 hours then it becomes more moderate but it's still wayy ahead of anything else on the market since even on the likes of Ombre Nomade the projection after 4 hours starts to be non existent; this is not the case here.

The rose is not strong at all, and you really get the fruitiness from the dates and from the rasberry. Those fruity notes make the more strong type of Oud more palatable and its quite enjoyable even for people who are not big on oud. This also uses true oud and not a synthetic or molecule variant which makes it an amazing value for money since its extremely hard to find actual oud fragrance on this market at the moment.

In terms of similarity, it's quite similar to ombre nomade and amouage interlude man, I'd say its a strong mix of the two with a much more apperent oud note and without the leather. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who thinks they'd like the notes or if they would like to get into more oriental perfumery.

ATH's Oud 2020 - In or Out?!
Absolutely no "typical" oud fragrance!

The so popular Tom Ford Oud Wood comes against it (value-free) angular, edgy, dry and the typical oud is the complete fragrance course very woody superficially present.
Aarons Oud 2020 starts quite perceptible (as the name reveals) with oud, which is also present in the entire course of the fragrance, but it acts from the beginning very round and soft.
After the start, first fresh, then ripe fruits join in. Yes, I smell actually, raspberries, dried dates and also amber from the pyramid.
Oud moves more and more into the background remains but somehow, somewhere still there. Vanilla comes in and it remains fruit-sweet, but not too or even disturbingly sweet.

Longevity & sillage are as expected just on a damn good level, however, not as extreme and "intrusive" as other ATH's.

Somewhere between TF and ATH, by the way, I would sort Carved Oud by Thameen. MMn also an absolutely successful and balanced Oud fragrance.

No Oud
Actually slight similarity to Interlude, but mMn is much more harmonious. Of all the fragrances I have ever smelled my absolute favorite.
The durability is also already very violent. On jackets the scent lasts for several weeks, Sillage is upper average. But if you are looking for a classic oud scent you should try Chocolate, Oud & Rose.
