Country Air
After I was allowed to smell so far some really good fragrances from LV, such as Sur La Route, L'Immensite and, my favorite, Ombre Nomade, I had to participate in a sharing for Pur Lud to also test the "flagship" from this house.
When the bottling arrived, of course it had to be tested immediately, so I treated myself to a good spritz on the wrist. Immediately, I detected a good dose of country air. For the village kids among you, the smell will probably be burned into your memory when it's spring, the temperatures slowly exceed 15°C and the farmer has fertilized the nearby field again to such an extent that the village fishing pond eutrophies almost immediately. This "country air" is, to my mind, the top note of Pur Oud and that is exactly my childhood PTSD.
Not so bad, I thought to myself, that's just the top note. It'll fade soon and get better, so leave it on and smell it again at half an hour. So I smelled it again after 30 minutes and the improvement I was hoping for was marginal. Still my wrist smelled like a cow barn. After an hour and a half on my wrist, this very unpleasant and penetrating note ultimately dissipated and let through a nevertheless quite pleasant woody scent that actually lingered the entire time.
What I was allowed to determine after I tested the Pur Oud for me, is that this type of fragrances, which have often been called "Stinky Ouds" here, are probably absolutely nothing for my nose, provided that the Pur Oud is a representative representative of this fragrance genre. I personally can the Pur Oud absolutely nothing abgewinnen, but that could also be due to the fact that I have generally smelled no other fragrance in which oud is so strongly in the foreground.
The performance of the fragrance is pretty rad, though. On my wrist I smelled him all day and after a spray from the TZ has the whole room smelled like a cow barn. H / S are so top!
I can not say anything about the price because, as I said, this is the first fragrance I have tested where oud is in the foreground. Therefore, I have no comparison fragrance and can give in this regard also no assessment.
