What do reviewers say about Notorious Oud and Obsidian?
Notorious Oud leans into everything mainstream oud tends to hide. The civet, the camphor, the metallic edge. It doesn't smooth itself into something polite or easily ignored.Notorious Oud
Violet and saffron is not a combination you see coming. Most people don't catch it at all. Those who do, they lean in. If you've been curious about Scentologia's more demanding side.Obsidian
