Unespected
I'm really amazed with this perfume, I received a sample after an order and I didn't have high expectations. It begins with very rich spices, reinforced in the center with mainly sandalwood and papyrus, to then arrive at a base, which gives stability and strength to the perfume itself, thanks to the classic vanilla and tonka bean combo, enriched however by the tobacco flower (which it's a note you don't see often) and musks. all in all I have to say that I really like the perfume even if I don't know if I would buy an entire bottle.
As always I advise against blind buy and see you next time :)

A little oud, a little warmth, a little little
My first encounter with a fragrance from "The House of Oud"
A dark evening, cool wind, I go for the first mulled wine of the year with the new Golden Powder.
The perfect occasion for this fragrance.
No, this first fragrance date was not a success.
Friday, meeting friends for high tea, ok, we'll just try it again. Again, it was not convincing. What's going on here? Highly acclaimed and the pyramid pleases too.
Now it's Saturday lunchtime and he gets an intimate date for two in the reading chair: ok, I'll give it up.

To elaborate on the headline:
Yes a little oud, yes a little wood, yes a little sweetness, yes a few spices and a little powder.
But unfortunately, always "a little" is simply -too little-
in the end It lacks depth, it lacks power, it lacks volume and it lacks golden powder.
S/H bad for the brand and the bottle can't save it.

We will unfortunately go our separate ways. There are enough alternatives with this, actually great, fragrance pyramid.
For someone who is really, really careful with oud: yes, give it a try.

No more golden egg :-)

Nutty Vanilla, not too sweet nor heavy. Very soft and cozy with tender Sandalwood and THOO’s signature Musk. Warm, enveloping blanket.

Obvious dupe of Xerjoff's Bouquet Ideale, 90-95% identical. But this might be better value as BI has bad performance. Feminine, non-summer.

Very smooth and soft woody vanilla fragrance, the name does represent the fragrance perfectly.
