Dark synthetic like greeny oud
I expected a lot from this perfume, I have great respect for Manuel, in general.
For lovers and well-versed in high-end ouds, I wouldn't say they will like this perfume at all.
It has a fecal oud smell, not from a "stable" (outbuildings where there are horses, it smells like their skin, leather, hay, horse feces of course) but literally like feces fertilizer and only that. After a few hours it reduces that prominent start and is reminiscent of something more refined and less dirty.
It is a dirty and dark perfume, too synthetic for me. I don't know if it is or not, but it seems that way to me compared to other proven and prestigious oud houses.
At first it also has a prominent somewhat greeny-balsamic smell, so pungent that I think it is reminiscent of the synthetic aroma of floor cleaning detergent. Afterwards, this balsamic point is also reduced considerably.
At 3-4 hours is when it smells best. On skin it is durable, perhaps much longer than oud extracts from proven natural oud houses, which also invites me to think that it is synthetic.
What it has in common with natural ouds is that its silage/projection is absolutely low, although in this perfume less pronounced than in the purest and most natural ones I have smelled.

A Gentlemanly Spicy-Animalic
Purchased a full sample collection from Rogue Perfumery, and was surprised to enjoy this one as much as I did. Usually when I label a scent as being somewhat "medicinal" it is a decidedly negative label, but this one is done so in a very aromatic, classical way. It remains balanced with a warm and nutty animalic or leathery base. The fragrance weirdly seems to be reminding me of family get-togethers with one of my especially macho uncles - though I know for a fact he doesn't wear cologne. Not the best oud fragrance in the world, but you can certainly do a lot worse.

An anti "mainstream" oud
Aoud Ancienne begins with an animalistic and scatological assam oud, this lingers for about 20' / 30' before settling into a stable-like scent; after this and until its late drying, what predominates is its leathery appearance with just a resinous touch (ladanum). A different oud, with an aromatic "aesthetic" very characteristic of the brand and that has known how to differentiate the creations of its perfumer Manuel Cross.

Initially spicy-animalic and cheesy, a challenging and dusty, animalic leathery-woody fragrance, on a warm and nutty resinous-woody base.
