Light and sweet vanilla-oud

Oud Nude is one I was not impressed with off of the strip when I sprayed it at the store, but I decided to get a decant anyway based on the high praise I heard it receiving and I'm definitely glad I did. I agree with the other reviewers' description of the synthetic-smelling opening which is probably why I didn't like it on the strip, but this does not last long. Very quickly the woody depth is apparent along with the almond-y accord present in L'Homme Idéal Eau de Parfum. Oud is only a modifier note here, rather than the main event. Oud Nude is a vanilla fragrance first and foremost, with the magical Guerlain vanilla note contained in other classics like "Cuir Béluga | Guerlain", Spiritueuse Double Vanille, and Bois d'Arménie. But the oud provides a nice medicinal, very subtly animalic facet to it, along with the almond accord imparting a gourmand character. All in all, a very beautiful light and sweet oud that is easy to enjoy regardless of gender.

Who would have thought that oud could be so soft and fluffy?

Wow, this is so gorgeous and stunning! One of the best fragrances I tried this year and maybe the most beautiful oud ever. At least for my personal taste. It's so soft and feminine, and also completely original and unique. I haven't smelled something like this before.

Oud Nude starts out with bittersweet, marzipan-like almonds, velvety raspberry and a phantom cherry note that likely comes from the mix of raspberry and almond. It's juicy and fresh, but with a lovely warmth. The oud starts out as a background note and slowly moves forward. It's a warm, leathery, borderline animalic, but still not dirty rendition of oud that doesn't come across as sharp as many other cleaner ouds. Maybe the blending with sandalwood plays a role here and softens the oud.
As the scent dries down, rose and vanilla become more noticeable. It's hard to pinpoint where the rose begins and the raspberry ends, as this is a sweet, jammy kind of rose that is also quite subtle. This is not your usual rose/oud. The final drydown is powdery and close to the skin. All the notes blend into one harmonious new scent at this point. It's not loud, but the skin scent lasts over night.

This fits the name, coloring and notes list perfectly, but still exceeded my expectations.
I don't think that this smells like a typical Guerlain, but I also can't imagine any other house that would make such a fine-tuned, delicate perfume out of oud.
It's a shame that the L'Art & La Matière line only comes in those huge, expensive bottles that never go on sale, but I will find a way to get this into my collection. It's worth it.

Fruity Oud

This fragrance should be called Juicy Oud. It has a very heavy fruit opening, the almond vanilla and rose soon peek out from behind the resinous Oud. The berry notes linger into the dry down which I love. This is a very feminine sweet smelling Oud with a slight woody finish. I can see myself wearing this daily as it has a strong projection but doesn’t overwhelm. It’s very sexy and can easily be worn for an evening out.

Synthetic opening, gorgeous dry down

The initial blast is woody but with a tart raspberry note. The raspberry soon settles to a sugary, syrupy evocation of the fruit which to my nose reads quite synthetic in a way I don’t enjoy. The oud is super subtle to begin with but makes its appearance as the fragrance dries. The base of it is my favourite, it almost has a caramelised effect but retains some of the sugary sweetness from the opening in a smoother way. The whole blend comes into it’s own in the dry down and reminds you that this is, after all, a Guerlain work. I wish it could be this from the beginning.

i don't like every oud

The more my nose tries fragrances, the more critical I become. I've become very critical of oud. I don't do every oud, even if this accord (which is usually not real oud) seems to be very popular at the moment.
The fragrance reminds me a lot of "Portraits - The Bewitching Yasmine | Penhaligon's", which I love and is my signature scent for evenings in the cold season. Oud, cardamom and floral. However, I find Oud Nude much sweeter and a little more animalic.
I currently own a miniature. I will use it up in peace. I don't think it will replace "Portraits - The Bewitching Yasmine | Penhaligon's" for me, but the two are equal partners for me.

Turns out this type of polished oud goes pretty well with Guerlain's almond-cherry blend. Apart from the harsh opening maybe

Initial raspberry opening quickly fades into almond laced with vanilla and traces of cedar. Drydown is gourmandish, but not sickling sweet.

A lot more quiet and intriguing than I expected. Even though jumping (late) in the oud wagon, good to see Guerlain maintain their standards.

Light vanilla-oud with a hint of floral. On my skin I smell a latex-y note, which softens on drydown but doesn't quite go away completely

Quite similar vibe to Clean Reserve Amber Saffron (raspberry suede), pretty but much more expensive

Almost leathery oud with a powdery raspberry note. The Oud is smooth and refined. Overall, a good fragrance but nothing too special to me.

Hard to explain why I dislike it. Harsh in your face raspberry with a woody background. Its just okay. Agree with the latex comment below.

A soft intro to oud, even for an Oud hater. Barely there raspberry. It’s nice, but not nice enough for the price. Not for me.

Light and airy, sweet marzipan oppening with a smooth slightly sweet Oud with delicate warm leather nuance. Gentle gourmand.

Guerlain and Oud are two things that should not be mixed because it doesn’t work most times. This is way too fruity and sweet to me.
