Simple and Cozy but can turn into a Beast
This is a simple scent yet really pleasantly gourmand and cozy. Ameer al Oudh - Intense Oud opens up as an incense bomb with tons of sugary sweetness. After a few minutes, the incense note disappears. The sugary sweetness remains, and the vanilla and woody notes start to appear. After a couple of hours, the sugary sweetness fades away, and all that remains is woodiness and faint vanilla. Perfect for cold weather and rainy weather. I almost exclusively wear this at nighttime only. This fragrance feels like it enhances coziness, I often wear it when I'm about to go to bed or whenever I am in a lazy mood and just stay in bed reading a book or watching a movie. I rarely wear this outside to social gatherings or with friends, but when I do wear it out to events, I overspray, and overspraying turns this fragrance into a Beast!
I have worn this a lot of times at this point. I often wear 3 sprays only. But there were few handful occassions that I oversprayed, up to 26 sprays! When I overspray, I leave behind a really thick and heavy scent trail, people could track me down by following the scent from one room to another! One time, a friend exclaimed: "I smell something sweet!" she then asked: "Did someone bring freshly baked cupcake or cookies?" and she was around 10-12 meters away from me! It is not offensive when oversprayed as well. My mother one time asked I smell very good and asked what I was wearing. In summary, when oversprayed, it fills a room, leaves behind a really sweet heavy scent trail, and people will definitely notice. When sprayed modestly, 3-4 sprays, it is the perfect amount for a cozy vibe.
On me, it almost always lasts 8-15 hours, doesn't matter the amount of sprays. However, I noticed that when this fragrance is worn in Hot temperatures, it will last 3-6 hours only. I've worn this unintentionally when it was hot. In hot temperature, it prominently smells woodier as well, the vanilla and sugary sweet note is short-lived. So, keep in mind that to enjoy Ameer al Oudh - Oud Intense, you have to wear it when it is cold, perhaps 25 degrees Celsius below. Above that temperature, longevity falls short, the vanilla and sugary note is short-lived, projection will be poor, and will smell prominently woody like a woodswork shop.
