The Divine Smell After A Revelry Night
This is a beautiful leather scent with a tinge of oud that is not too intense. It’s smokey, woody and musky, with gloomy tones of leather coming through. The leather is the crucial actor, and I would describe this as a subtle oud. It is not original or unique, as it smells like many other leather things I have, but I love it.
The presentation is gorgeous. A black velvet case, the bottle and the cap are heavy glass. Not linear, the transition goes through a green-citrus, bitter and smoky, and finally, leathery accords.

From the sprayer, it smells sweet with a light fruitiness along with suede. However, as soon as I spray it, I get fresh green and citrus notes. A burst of green bamboo-like followed by a smoke-soaked suede jacket stretched out over an expanse of dew-soaked violets. An excellent, damp suede. The green foliage tinge might come from the cardamom, and the initial leather accord is akin to that of saffron, not mentioned but noticeable. An Arabian market comes to mind when I taste that spiciness.

Then it grows on me and comes to the oud, not at too skanky, or screechy, or barnyard. Instead, it has a smoky, dark woody facet. It plays in the back as an adornment and does not have the focus; therefore, I would not classify this scent as an oudy. The oud hints last only half an hour, then fade away. What hits me in this stage is the smokiness, not only from the oud but even from resinous frankincense detectable. All those nuances blend with dewy and slightly powdery violet, just a little floral but primarily damp. The fragrance features other blossoms not mentioned but is palpable.

The leather builds the backbone of the base, kicks in the middle but explodes lately. It’s a prime quality leather with no harshness, petrol vibe, or roughness, just polish and smoothness. I catch a musty, musky, and smoky leather. The velvety leathery accord remains on my skin until the end of its life. I would have named it "Velvet Leather".

Velvet Oud is for leather fragrance lovers. The scent is ideal for casual and formal events, dinners, bars, and even work but is too elegant and intimate for clubbing. Except for summer, this is a good option for early fall, winter, and spring days and evenings. On my skin, it has a moderate sillage and below average longevity, half a day, and then I must reapply. Indeed, on my clothes, it stays stuck for several hours, nearly all day. Do I recommend this? Yes, if you are fond of leathery things and well acquainted with oud.

I base my opinion and review on a bottle I have owned since December 2022.

-Elysium

P.S. I adjusted the longevity as the perfume is perceptible on the clothes the next day. It's above average, a solid 8 for me.

Nothing special
The opening of Velvet Oud is pretty smooth, not a screechy mess which I would have expected given the price. It quickly dries down with the suede being obvious. The leathery scent doesn't last very long and Velvet Oud turns into a fruity/oud fragrance. The fruity smell reminded me of hard candy that has a "berry" flavor. That is, an artificial combination of various berries. The fruity/berry accord gradually dissipates and your left basically with oud.

Performance was OK with the oud scent being pretty detectable after 9 hours when I showered to prep for the evening. Projection was pretty good for the first couple of hours.

I can see why this reminds some people of the various Ombre Leathers - with the light suede and berry scent to sweeten it up, there is a resemblance but only for a moment. The suede doesn't last. Velvet Oud is, afterall, an oud fragrance not a leather fragrance.

Overall an OK fragrance but nothing I'd bother with, even at its low price.

Absolutely Amazing.
It seems online not a lot of people love this and I'm genuinely not sure why.
It basically smells like leather with a bit of sweetness to balance it out. The opening you get some Citrus which brightens it up, and then It fades into that leather with some sweetness. In this fragrance I get a small undertone of oud but it's not a lot at all, I'm not even sure why it's in the name, because this is definitely a leather fragrance. I've actually had quite a few compliments with this despite it being so unbelievably cheap, I got it for £15 and price aside it smells very nice, but if you include price in it, it's a 10/10 Fragrance no doubt about it, was love at first smell for me.

Velvet Oud: The Unexpected Leather King
Velvet Oud is a revelation. For men in their late twenties and beyond, this fragrance is a must-try. It delivers a high-quality leather experience that's both versatile and remarkably affordable. While the initial ten seconds are a brief, sharp citrus, the fragrance quickly evolves into a captivating blend.
At its heart, a smooth leather note is masterfully balanced with raspberry, subtle tropical fruit hints, and a touch of floral. The base of clean musk, amber, incense, cinnamon, and a whisper of oud adds depth and intrigue. A light, powdery-sweet finish complements the tangy citrus and raspberry, creating a sophisticated and balanced composition.
While comparisons to Tom Ford's Ombre Leather and Tuscan Leather exist, Velvet Oud stands on its own. It's a lighter, drier, and more wearable leather, making it suitable for a wider range of occasions, from casual to formal. The niche-quality bottle and excellent atomizer elevate the experience. Performance is impressive, with 7+ hours of longevity and solid projection.
Rarely do I recommend blind buys, especially for leather fragrances, but Velvet Oud is an exceptional hidden gem.

Leather! Leather...?
Due to the many good reviews and ratings, I also had to take a look at this fragrance.

Unfortunately, I have to say that the fragrance does not live up to my expectations.
For me, the fragrance smells floral with a certain spicy base.
I smelled it on everything I had leather in the household.
Motorcycle suit, living area, leather jacket, etc.
Nothing had a distinctive smell of its own, the leather suit smelled of beeswax because it is regularly rubbed with leather grease.
I then sniffed another leather fragrance...Tuskan Leather....this one is a lot more tart, but the fragrance concept is rather similar.

Now these fragrance pyramids given by the manufacturers should be viewed with a lot of imagination.
Nor does it in any way mean that these fragrance notes are actually contained as essences.
On the contrary, it is only meant to describe the scent sensation and many reviewers...look at the pyramid and try to incorporate these notes into a story, although many do not even know what the individual essences smell like in real life.

I always try to describe what I perceive olfactorily.

Ok so much for this rather sweet floral scent...is that the patchouli?
The fragrance itself is not badly made...I'm sure many ladies like it too.
For me, it's more unisex.

A special treat is the bottle, which is beautifully made.

The same kind of leather on Ombre Leather, but this is more floral, or rosy if you want. Veeeery nice. For the price is a bargain.

Not oudy, incensey or beastmode on me. Just a blast of syrupy shoe polish chemicals that quickly dissipates to a faint barnyard skin scent.
