Warm summer nights
I agree with some other reviewers that this has some things in common with J.Lo Miami Glow, which I consider a nostalgic drugstore classic by now. But it's absolutely a huge upgrade! I always liked the poolside vibes and coconut of Miami Glow, but there is too much of the clean, musky Glow DNA in it to really love it. Oud Orange Intense doesn't have that.
It starts out with the same ultra fresh, tart, borderline ozonic fruitiness. I sense citruses (especially grapefruit) and passion fruit here. And, of course, coconut! It really makes me think of drinking a cocktail by the pool. If you don't like this fruity, fun kind of scent, this isn't for you.
But there is a warm base to it that makes it much more intense than other fragrances in this vein. I don't think that there is enough oud to warrant the name, but I get a small hint of it. Vanilla is very present, too, and some unlisted balsamic notes. Over a few hours, this turns much less fruity and more base-heavy than expected. It's an amber scent in the final drydown, the sweet, non-scratchy kind that smells like a more refined version of gummy cola bottles.
I see this as a perfume for special occasions or summer nights. Due to the ambery, woodsy warmth it can also be worn well into autumn. I would not recommend it for casual summer use, in that case, good old Miami Glow (and its lower-end dupes like Britney Spears Maui Fantasy or the lovely Jil Sander Sun Summer Edition from 2020) would honestly be the better choice.
This is quite loud and intense and perfectly unisex to me.
The only real downside is the pricing. Over 6€ per ml is just ridiculous. Oud Orange Intense smells like high quality and lasts all day, but I still wonder if one could achieve a similar effect by layering a Miami Glow adjacent freshie on a good amber fragrance.
