    What do reviewers say about Aouda and Scent?

    It's the kind of oud that's been woven into something you live in, not perform. If you've wanted to try oud but found the usual suspects too much, this is the version that lets you wear it without.Aouda
    The green tea start feels almost clinical, then it opens into something warmer, woody, floral, quietly confident. Not everyone wants that arc.Scent
