Middle Easter for the West
"I've been holding back for a long time, but now I think it's time to write my first review. I've been in the community in the perfume bubble for a year now and have tested it extensively. I think I can allow myself a judgment.
Now to the fragrance itself: Oud Imperial is a very beautiful and easy-to-wear oud fragrance, particularly appealing to the Western nose. It starts very strongly with oud, a little synthetic, but that fades after just 2 minutes. No stinky oud... It's a very fresh, woody fragrance. Saffron is very present, in my opinion more in the masculine direction. Patchouli absorbs it, and in the drydown it becomes woodier and slightly incense-like. The oud recedes into the background and the fragrance becomes very, very woody and close to the skin. I would like the oud to stay in the foreground longer, but I still bought a bottle! The price-performance ratio is top!!!"
