Lehmann- Passion: 3 - Oud with the aloofness of an egoist
That you can get an oud-scent, the "fashion-scent" of the last years, from the house Lehmann, I find very surprising.
That one holds with it an unusual representative of this scent cathegory in hands, however, not.
From Lehmann I am used to rather classical fragrances. But you always get high quality and something special at the same time. With Oud or Mol Intens he meets the spirit of the time and that pleases me very much.
The fragrance starts with a dry, dark woody steam, but after 10 seconds it gives way to a synthetic, medicinal scent. It smells like hospital, old gauze bandages, iodine. And not too little of it. Sounds worse than it is, oud lovers know (and appreciate) this smell. The medical smell, however, soon fades into the background, but remains present and forms a sterile yellow glow that makes for a certain aloofness. Important: Lehmann does not build a gourmand cuddly oud here.
Behind this aloofness the fragrance unfolds, becomes slightly juicy, which clearly suggests saffron. Scratchy, spicy, sugarless honey I also perceive. Likewise a toilsome biting eucalyptus without menthol vibes, the scent of an ecalyptus forest.
Faeces despisers can breathe a sigh of relief, there is absolutely no mucking out of a stable! Each animal is freshly washed and combed, gutted, stuffed and except for a slightly biting aroma, largely odourless.
"Oud" is far away from the fecal, so one of the tigers must smell, which some weirdo keeps as a pet. Hearty little animalism, but a little freshness in the fur. But the warm humid breath of such a tiger lets nevertheless everyone the neck hairs stand up.
More bitter than fresh citric is also central to this fragrance, reinforcing the clean, unapproachable. The bitterness remains almost to the end.
Smoke I miss something, smoky notes are something I generally appreciate in oud scents and I think a soft smoky vanilla or some incense would have done this one good I also perceive something salty, but I can also be mistaken.
Towards the heart note our clay becomes softer, sweeter. I smell mainly amber and cinnamon The funny thing is that all the above described is only felt close to the skin.
From a distance you can perceive a wonderfully light, fresh, clean but distinctive oud scent.
I am fascinated by the fact that "Oud" has a certain aloofness in spite of its mass-suited, oud-untypical, low sillage, which is much more elegant than by stink-animalism. It almost reminds me of the arrogance of an ÉGOÏSTE by Chanel.
I find that cleverly solved. I can imagine him very well for the work
The Sillage is really gentle, but the scent disappears with the end of the day when I apply it in the morning.
What's the point of "oud"?
1. The price, just compared to other oud fragrances.
2. The smoothness, we don't have a projection bang here.
3. Tamed, we have no fecal animaloids.
4. Once again a slightly different oud smell.
What's wrong with that?
1. The hospital association
I can recommend the fragrance in any case, even as a blind purchase.
I could even imagine that, layered with something citric, oud gives off a special summer scent Layers is expressly recommended by Lutz Lehmann and is also offered there.
Thank you for reading my comment.
