Oud by L'Orientaliste

*****
Year: unknown

Notes: bergamot, violet, rose, patchouli, cedar, sandalwood, musk
Oud is very deceptive in that it doesn't really contain any agarwood. Instead, it merely attempts to recreate the olfactory properties of this en vogue accord. Unfortunately, it never quite succeeds, due to its relative simplicity and a heavy reliance on cedar.

Based on the deluge of oud offerings currently on the market, there are a countless number of more worthwhile alternatives available (both designer and niche).
