Unexpected winner
Well well this was highly unexpected. I ordered this set of samples from Xerjoff and I added Uden because the name probably stuck from a review somewhere or something, I don’t recall. I didn’t have any high hopes on it though, Naxos is “the one” anyway, right?

Was I wrong or what? First spray and I’m like okay…. Nice, freshly squeezed lemon. But then after a while it begins evolving into this rich, slightly sweet, slightly dry amber vanilla goodness. Somewhere halfway, about 4 hours in, it starts whafting these dry tabacco-esque whiffs. Although the note is not listed, this strikes me more as a tobacco-scent than Naxos. Maybe it’s the dryness of the woody notes. Anyway it’s definitely got the x-factor to me. That stuff that makes your brain pop out.

Sillage is a bit weird. One time I get unsurpassed projection, even smelling it very well when leaving a room and re-entering. The other I barely smell it, getting overruled by other smells around me. Ah well as long as I smell it myself I’m good. I can smell it all day long so that’s good as well.

Am I getting a full bottle of this? Hell yeah.

Photorealistic boozy citrus
Strong lemony citrus opening, almost photorealistic. Takes about 20 minutes before that rum comes on strong and lends a sweet, boozy accord to the scent profile. After a couple hours, a slight powdery vanilla and woody accords creep in. All around lovely to my nose, not a simple fragrance, and the performance is excellent too. Strong projection for 3-5hr, longevity 10-12hr. Versatile, though that boozy accord makes me hesitant to wear it in formal situation or in blazing hot weather.

Basically a slightly more complex, better-performing Chanel Allure Homme or CAH Edition Blanche. The Chanels lack the Rum accord and have no hint of powderyness. More boozy and citric, less woody and vanillic than Uden Overdose. Kinda similar to Richwood as well, without the florals.

Not elite, but I don’t have too many complaints about it
That opening citrus will calm down and the blend will become sweeter, fresher, and spicier. Rum, is the first note to let itself be known, alongside that vanilla creaminess.

That citrus sharpness will calm down dramatically. In the mix, will come the woody notes. Oud and sandalwood. To my nose, the latter is the stronger of the two. Again, I love a good pairing of that with vanilla and the lemon top.

Sweet vanilla, boozy woods is basically the finish with Uden. Really quite beautiful and a pleasure to pick up hints of when the fragrance begins to fade.

Seasonally, this is more geared toward autumn or spring, in my opinion. It does have a heaviness that makes it too much for the daytime in summer, but I had good results with it in the evening.

Do I like this fragrance? It’s one of my personal favorites. So, yeah. Is it for everyone? Probably not.

I love a good vanilla and citrus scent and this is among the best that I’ve encountered. If that’s not your thing, you can pass on Uden. If it sounds somewhat intriguing to you, I’d track down a sample, to see how you enjoy it.

Personally, I think that this is a masterpiece. The smell is just outstanding. It took everything that I liked about the Chanel fragrance and made it better. Plus, it goes in its own direction. The rum and coffee really help to set it apart.

Additionally, it’s not as dry with the vetiver. Much creamier and the citrus notes are great here.

The performance is good. Not elite, but I don’t have too many complaints about it. But, the scent is so delightful to me, that I do with that it kept going on and on.

As of now, I haven’t splurged on a full bottle, but it is definitely on the list of one that I want for my own collection. It’s just pricey.

Regards

4711 for those with money to burn
Totally unisex in my opinion and absolutely inoffensive.
It wears very close to the skin, and the softness and roundness of the fragrance is in sharp contrast with the angular cold metallic physique of the bottle.

Surprised to see this classified as an Aromatic Spicy since to my nose, it is a rather obvious Citrus scent, with a discreet Play-Doh vibe hovering in the background.

Nothing groundbreaking, but perfectly pleasant and wearable (think 4711).
Would I fork out for a full price bottle?
No.

Shooting Stars : Uden
Starts off complex with a lot going on; fresh, flowery, green, sweet, woody, boozy and a mild coffee aroma. They all work very well together and it's the most interesting part. Because within a couple of hours, it all goes simpler, many notes disappear, it becomes quite sweet and with an emphasis on vanilla. The direction is now gone to a soft and sweet, almost to the point of classifying it a gourmand boozy/vanilla/sandalwood/musk which is nice smelling, but not that expensive or rich as the beginning. In fact, it goes from something unique to something common, widely felt with that vanilla based drydown.

The citrus and coffee notes in constant interaction, complemented with a hint of rum. Masterfully and clearly implemented ambivalence.

Sour citrus turning sweet vanillic, woody and creamy. Absolutely love it but I’m not sure it wins prices in the originality department.

Citrus blast brought to perfection. Also, it's got more body w/ super soft coffee, rose and rum. Musk is mindblowingly good & smooth.

Definite unisex, wondering from male to female and back to male again to state its masculine nature. Will be very refreshing in summer.

Citrus start + fleeting coffee, creamy musk dry down. I prefer Bond 9's take, which adds a layer w/ apple note. It's OK

Familiar smell with Sculpture and CAH Blanche, but this is done so well. Signature scent worthy. This and Naxos are my 2 personal favorites.
