White Oud Illuminum 2012

This had got be one of the most intensely vetiver and oud combos I have ever come across. The intensity of the two mixed with cumin makes for a very interesting and ultimately unique experience. At times there is an almost industrial/machinery type of vibe coming from it which I find intriguing...it reminds of sweaty aircraft mechanics in the middle of an ultra dry desert! Fascinating! Given this, it most certainly isn't going to be a fragrance for everyone and it really strikes me as one that's a bit to specific for everyday wear. However, dry vetiver lovers, this might certainly pique your interest due simply to the intensity of the vetiver note. Frankly, it doesn't get much drier than this.
