L’oudh has the most earthy, evil, and dark oud that I’ve ever smelled.
This perfume has some of the darkest natural oud I’ve ever smelled.

For me, It smells like walking through a very dark forest in the Himalayas while smoking dark oud and wearing a vintage leather jacket that has been splashed with gasoline and has dirt all over it.
Masterpiece, in my opinion.

(This is not your classic Middle Eastern take on oud)
I dislike those very much, so if you’re looking for an oud perfume that’s different and very dark, dirty, and evil, this is all you need.

Masterpiece
My current signature, another masterpiece by Andy Tauer, an oud like no others.
I bought a full bottle after trying it from a decant and exploring many of its facets during many days.
At the beginning it is strong, it's true, but it doesn't project too far (which I like: not everyone might like it) and it dries down balsamic and warm, much more wearable and "dryer" than Au Coeur du Desert or other immersive sculptures by the genius of Andy Tauer, even though no less warm.
The first weeks I wished it were even "dryer" on the DD, less "balsamic-ambery", less "sour" (not the right definition, but it's how some reviewers describe a facet of the "Tauerade") but then I started to appreciate more and more its traces on fabrics, and on skin at the end of the day.
Not for everyone but, if you're into this, no other perfume can compare.

Edit: one year later, L'oudh continues to surprise me. I've been learning and experiencing much more expensive and rare natural ouds, which made me enjoy even more Tauer's take. It may not be the best oud, but it's among the best takes on oud. And, according to me, the best creation by the genius of Andy Tauer.
It's not cheap, nonetheless value for money is stellar: I don't know anything that could rival this one.

dose carefully !
For me a controversial scent: the beginning is already quite hard, only after about 7 hours L'Oudh smells good on my skin. Something fungal-animal with a bitter medicinal side smell accompanied me for hours (maybe it really reminds me of horse droppings). The silage was very strong, it radiated a dry, warm, even rather dusty flair. On my clothes there was practically no scent development. The perfume was already quite penetrating, therefore one should probably "carefully" deal with it. On my skin I found it a bit more pleasant. It's just a niche scent that is difficult to wear, but you can see its high quality in the overall composition.

A challenging, dark smoky oud
I sampled this one for the sole purpose of trying real Laotian Oud oil. The scent opens with an aggressive medicinal bandage note that verges on melting plastic. Was not a fan at first, but as it dried down, I got earthier and sweeter notes of fungus (morel), vetiver, and sandalwood. It also smells significantly better on skin, blending with my natural chemistry into something more human and approachable. Glad I tried it, but just not for me.

IMO one of the worst "high end oud perfumes" of the market, just oud and not an specially natural one nothing more, soulless.

Those who can wear this fragrance surely know how to live in darkness and shadows. Demonic perfume.
