What do reviewers say about Noir and Oud Wood?
If oud and frankincense aren't your thing, this won't win you over. But if that resinous, incense-dark character speaks to you, this is where the magic lives.Noir
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
