Mass-Compatible Oriental - a rather soft, slightly fruity spring Oud
'Mass-compatible' is probably not an attribute that the company Du Bois will wish for, given the price. A niche fragrance for 420 euros (50 ml), which has yet to receive any comments?
A slightly fruity opening, clearly recognizable as a somewhat waxy mandarin, rounded off with a lightly nutty-dry cardamom. A very delicately applied smoky note joins in, all used in an extremely moderate manner, light-footed, perhaps a bit vague in the composition.
"Intense" is not much here; one could almost rename the fragrance to "Oud Bleu Cologne."
The namesake Oud itself, which the company advertises as 100% organic and real, comes across as distinctly oriental, slightly sweet, bright, and minimally resinous. The opposite of heavy or voluminous, thanks to the fine cistus, it is rather more balsamic-resinous in character.
All in all, a quite nice fragrance that doesn't hurt anyone, but otherwise comes across as remarkably pale and harmless.
