One of the few successful blind buys
I have owned Sueded Oud for a while now (since last summer). It was a blind buy made solely by the raving reviews from Anne Lauren (yes, once again she's managed to do so!).
I don't know why and I don't know how, but I managed to forget to write a review and even worse, add the fragrance to my Parfumo shelf.

I have made mistakes blind buying a fragrance before, so I didn't dare to get the full bottle, but I managed to find a 10 ml bottle perfect for an introduction.
Luckily, Sueded Oud, wasn't a mistake.

The name Sueded Oud alludes to a dominating and strong fragrance, but the key wording here is 'sueded'. This fragrance is smooth and delicate, just like I imagine the word sueded to be - making something softer like the feeling of soft suede.

I don't know how Clean did it, but this fragrance has so many notes whereas the scent itself is very simple.
Pimento, cactus, praline, incense, patchouli, birch, cypress... This should knock you out like the first spray of Oud for Greatness, but instead, Sueded Oud comforts you, snuggles you in and feels like a freshly washed warm and cozy blanket.
It has a wonderful projection and I feel confident wearing it, it is perfect for an office job, a meeting or if you want to emanate maturity and confidence.

Though not like that of praline, which I find sticky sweet, Sueded Oud has a perfectly sweetened balance that is delicate and feminine. It isn't just a cashmere soft scent. Very close to skin, I even find it powdery, but in a very endearing way.
I am very pleased with my blind buy venture, thank you Anne!

For oud fans who don't like oud
As a perfume beginner, after buying the standard designer fragrances and further searching through Parfumo, it was clear to me: An oud fragrance was needed Not with Mühl... not with Doug... and also not on the Internet, where I usually bought fragrances, I wanted to shop. So I entered a real perfumery for the first time that day.
When asked about oud, the saleswoman first showed me the classic: TF Oud Wood. My inexperienced nose was shocked, it smelled awful. "So this is the stunningly scented wood that all the perfumers rave about?" I thought to myself. My face must have reflected my thoughts quite explicitly, because the saleswoman immediately shows me another scent with the words: "This one is not quite as strong": Southern Oud from Clean. When I smelled this one, I regained my confidence in the perfumes. I smelled a complex but not overpowering fragrance that I would best describe as woody, spicy and slightly sweet. "That's Oud!" I thought and bought the perfume
In the meantime I have tried out other fragrances. Among them also other oud scents. Even today I am still convinced that the DNA or the scent itself is really very beautiful. Woody Spicy Sweet sounds like fun. But Oud? Oud hardly smells at all. At least not the typical oud smell as you know it from oud wood etc. I also know today that the shelf life and especially the sillage are rather in the lower middle range, which is a real pity considering the beautiful scent. All in all still a buy recommendation for oud fans who do not like oud.
