What do reviewers say about Above and Beyond and Oud Wood?
This one earns attention the hard way. The saffron opening is confrontational, not subtle, not safe, built for someone who doesn't need permission to arrive.Above and Beyond
Oud without the intimidating punch. This takes that precious, sometimes brutal note and polishes it into something you'll actually want to smell on yourself. That's the move here, and it pays off.Oud Wood
