Hello darkness my old friend..
This fragrance was my favorite from the SORADORA range and let me tell you why is that so.
My favorite designer fragrances ever is sadly discontinued Gucci Pour Homme I, I am just mesmerized by what Michel Almairac did there!
Kamel Oud is definitely not a clone and not a copy of GPHI buuuut they do share a similar DNA. KO is probably one of the most inoffensive fragrances with "oud" in it's name that I ever encountered. From the quick chat with one of the guys from SORADORA crew, I was given an impression that what they wanted to accomplish with this one was exactly that! To create dense but not off-putting, likeable and wearable westernized oud fragrance where oud doesn't scream fecal, barnyard or even animalic, so for all of the hardcore oud or animalic lovers, you can skip this one! Buuut if you dig cumin, you're in for a threat! Because every illusion of animalic nuances here is coming exactly from-cumin. Big blast of cumin and pink pepper is what I'm getting right off the bat, which is followed by elemi and saffron and of course the two main players papyrus and that pencil shaving-cedar! Laotian oud is there to keep things interesting!
But this fragrance do smells opulent and regal, dark and dry...sometimes two dimensional and sometimes three or even four dimensional, it depends on the temperature, but I like it just the way it is! I am wearing the heck out of it and I can definitely recommend you to at least try it for yourself!
