"Many animals..
...have swum through my ego with red blood" (F. Villon, poem by P. Zech)
If you are looking for an oud perfume, you will not get your money's worth: Ambré Oud is an amber perfume - and indeed, people believe that the scent is the product of a sperm whale's digestive tract, spewed into the salty head of a dark sea. Is it bad? - Not at all!
If you're looking for a pleasing perfume, you won't like Ambré Oud: the scent is animalistic, perhaps bestial - secretive! The art is not always beautiful and yet it can be inspiring: the more hurtful, disturbing, extreme it is to us, the more rousing and seductive it can be at times. This does not have to be the case - but the beautiful does not have to be light, delightful and sugar-sweet either. Often it is painful, and it is precisely in the process that it unfolds its special, deep appeal. ((Greek) mythology, painting, poetry, music, film)
You don't have to be a masochist to love Ambré Oud. It's enough to be open to be overwhelmed and surprised by the bright, pungent sound of this fragrance, by the composition's balsamic, animalistic, quirky and peppery notes, by the passionate, hypnotic, ecstatic and wild statement of this perfume.
Not a Raphael (like some of the renaissance scented paintings, e.g. from the house of Dior) that you MUST love, but certainly a good Dix that you can fall for if you value more in life than perfection, flawless beauty and cotton candy.
