What do reviewers say about Oud & Santal and Oud Wood?
Oud can intimidate. This isn't that. Mathilde Laurent stripped the barnyard and kept the bewitching part, oud's resinous darkness softened by plum and sandalwood into something almost approachable.Oud & Santal
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
