Oud Cashmere Mood Maison Francis Kurkdjian 2013

I'll say it in advance, this is my new favorite scent! At first only for the winter, because I'm not sure if it will be too brute in summer...

But first things first... where do I start?
Best with my initial question. I was looking for a fragrance in which oud plays the leading role. Not interrupted by roses, as one has so often, and rightly so, or other scents. So pure oud.

So here on the forums looking for an oud-banger... quickly I landed at MFK and since I already had very good experiences with some of his scents, I was sure that not only dull oud is used here, but also good scents are produced altogether!
A blessing were the comments and statements of the other users, because I soon realized that Oud Extrait and Oud Cashmere Mood Extrait are the horses in the stable I should bet on.

I quickly got a travel bottle of Oud Extrait and sprayed it on. In the beginning I had strong BR540 vibes, which is probably due to the saffron... all in all a great scent, which should satisfy the masses with its sweetness, but which can also catch the most masculine men with its not insignificant oud!

But that's not what I was looking for... ...I wanted the full oud club!
So the oud had to be cashmere!
Unfortunately, there are hardly any offers here and elsewhere on the net you won't get it at a discount...
But thanks to a super nice perfume, I was able to get hold of a broken bottle for the Schnapper price!
And that was a 200€-blindbuy, which I had actually renounced, but in retrospect I would do everything exactly the same again!
When I finally held the bottle in my hands, I didn't dare to spray it, because it was already after 6 pm and I already guessed that it could take up our whole bedroom, which my better half surely wouldn't have liked very much :D

So I fell asleep in anticipation of the next morning When I sprayed it the next morning I was immediately blown away! Oud immediately from the first sprayer! I was in heaven! Yes, in the first hour the oud is sometimes a little bit medical for a few seconds, but that doesn't bother me, because that's exactly how I wanted it to be!
Later the resins and vanilla are added. However, they only accentuate the fragrance! The oud plays the first violin at all times!
To the durability I can only say that I can still hear him after a full 12 hours outside and not only on the skin!
I can't say anything about the silage, due to lack of feedback, but I assume that it's worth seeing :)

I am super happy with my sweetheart and have finally found my new signature scent (at least in the cold half of the year)!

So for everyone who made it this far, thanks for reading :)
