What do reviewers say about Chinese Oud II and Oud Wood?
This is aldehydic florals done the way they used to be, not as a nod to the classics, but as the real thing. The oud doesn't shout. It settles into the back of the composition like a secret kept for.Chinese Oud II
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
