Gorgeous and Complex!
This is extremely well blended with top notch notes. The DNA of the original X for men is present but distant. X Oudh opens with pimento, baie rose and cardamom. The opening is a combo of fresh, slightly spicy and smoky. I’m assuming the smoky accord is coming from the labdanum or castoreum. I’m not sure but it adds a sophistication to X Oudh. As it dries down, the sandalwood and benzoin provides a creamy ever so slightly sweet aroma that is gorgeous.
With all of this sexiness going on, one thing I failed to mention….there is no oud in X Oudh, or it’s the least used material and buried underneath all the other notes within the fragrance. Maybe my nose is broken…who knows.
No matter, I cannot stop smelling my hand and love it.
This reminds me a little bit of a niche quality version of YSL’s M7, the OG red bottle. X Oudh is dense and richer while providing better performance.
My favorite Clive Christian offerings are X Oudh, Cypress and Hedonistic. Absolutely love them all.
If you can find a sample of this rare fragrance, do not hesitate to try it.
