Year: 2010
Notes: limoncello, cardamom, frankincense, papyrus, tobacco leaf, patchouli, Brazilian rosewood, moss
Starting out with a medicinal note of limoncello (an Italian lemon liqueur), the cardamom, papyrus and patchouli quickly join the fray. As the composition develops an inky smokiness, the woods and tobacco add more weight to the composition, vaguely imparting a hay-like aroma.
Bearing some similarities to M/Mink, it's a screechy aromatic woody mess. In comparison to Accord Oud, Oud Immortel's performance is considerably feeble. With no discernible evidence of any oud whatsoever, just like its sibling, the name is also a complete misnomer.
It's bad enough when a niche fragrance house jumps onto the oud bandwagon, but to then have the audacity to release a so-called oud creation containing no agarwood (natural or synthetic) is nothing short of a joke.
