Convergence of tastes - East likes West and vice versa?

Following the balmy and pungent scent of oud, many perfumes are now launched with a trace of oud.

Meanwhile, in the Middle East, the ladies and gents seek out the Western fragrances. I have heard that almost every Shopping Mall in the major cities in the Middle East has a Paris Gallery with lots of Designer and Niche fragrances.

I know a young couple from Saudi Arabia. They wear western stuff, he wears some aquatic that reminds me a bit of womanity. Have smelled this one on western men several times, seems to be a mainstream release.
