Not just for an office anymore !
REACTION!
So, I recently received my bottle of Tom Ford Oud Wood Parfum.
I generously spritzed myself and I can say - this is fantastic perfume!
PROS:
️ The same DNA as the EDP version, but darker, more refined, lasts twice as long on my skin
️ (The EDP version lasts 3-4 hours on me with a low projection, the Parfum version - 8-9 hours with a medium projection).
️ Lots of high-quality natural materials such as: cardamom, patchouli, pink pepper, vetiver, rosemary.
️ Balanced formula. OWP smells special, rounded, nothing is too much or too little, such a balanced fragrance is rare even among the best niche brands.
️ Thameen Carved Oud (a niche OW variant) doesn’t compare to the OWP version in terms of refinement, natural materials, longevity, or projection.
️ The fragrance is not linear, it changes significantly on the skin, I suspect the musks react very nicely with the skin’s “chemistry” and the perfume becomes even more intense after an hour than just when sprayed, becoming more sexy.
CONS:
️ Price! These perfumes will start at 429 euros for a 50ml bottle, which means they are much more expensive than most niche perfumes…
️ The Oud! I don’t feel the real oud, and with such a price, I want not just oud and sandalwood accords, but real materials…
️ On the blotter, the fragrance is very uniform and weak, so it needs to be tested only on the skin.
My CONCLUSION:
Those who plan to buy these perfumes must really love the Oud Wood DNA, because it is an extremely expensive pleasure, but without a doubt the best TF attempt to revive Oud Wood, as it solves all EDP issues: projection, longevity on the skin, fragrance progression, and refinement (since OW is mostly considered as a “for office” scent, whereas this version is more “for special occasions”).
