    What do reviewers say about 500 Years and Oud Assoluto?

    The oud-rose heart is either the reason to buy this or the reason to skip it. Bold, unapologetic, almost confrontational in its sincerity. A fragrance that doesn't flinch.500 Years
    The rose makes it. For an oud fragrance to center a flower instead of wood or resin, that's the move that either works or doesn't. Wear it and you'll understand why people stay loyal.Oud Assoluto
