    What do reviewers say about Opus XV – King Blue and Bittersweet Oud?

    This fragrance asks for a commitment. The opening is gorgeous and approachable, then oud arrives and the room changes. Some find that thrilling. Some find it too much.Opus XV – King Blue
    Bitter orange makes the first move. Then the oud arrives, but it's surprisingly soft, almost creamy. This is oud for people who don't usually go for oud.Bittersweet Oud
