    What do reviewers say about Agarwoud and Oud Wood?

    An oud for people who think they don't like oud. It keeps the resinous depth but strips the heaviness, Bulgarian rose lifts the whole composition into something unexpectedly clean. Controversial take?Agarwoud
    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
