Bade'e Al Oud - Oud for Glory Lattafa / لطافة

In the social media, the large and small content creators are overflowing with positive reviews of Bade'e Al Oud - Oud for Glory, so that I myself was on the verge of blindly buying a bottle.

Just good that I briefly came to my senses again and let me first a small bottling here in the souk have sent.

Why? Well, the fragrance itself is actually quite nice. It reminds me of the little, harmless brother of Ameer Al Oudh Intense Oud. A nice woody scent, just without fire. And without oomph.
A bit perceive the car tire smell, which some have already described here. But it evaporates quite quickly. Sweet wood, almost like freshly cut spruce or fir. That's what I perceive mainly.

"A little weak on the chest." was however also my first thought when I sprayed him to test on the back of the hand. But with it a little more suitable for everyday use than the olfactory blend grenade Ameer Al Oudh Intense Oud.

Then this morning I wanted to do the everyday test and sprayed Bade'e Al Oud - Oud for Glory the first time "so right" on.

Well, a breakfast in the café and a short walk later he was then rushed past. The hype fast train.
He was up close, barely noticeable. Nose blindness? No, because even my girlfriend could hardly smell him.

I had really expected more. Even my cheap drugstore fragrances hold out much longer and are i.d.R. even in the early afternoon still clearly more perceptible than Bade'e Al Oud - Oud for Glory after just under 2 hours.

Too bad, Lattafa. For this train I book no more ticket.
