What do reviewers say about Black Oud and Laudano Nero?
The animalic base isn't a party trick. Civet, castoreum, real oud, materials that cost serious money and require serious restraint to use well. Finding all three together at this price point is.Black Oud
Smoke that went sweet. That's the gamble here, honey finding its way into the ash and slate, vanilla that remembers it grew up in a pod. Too much? Maybe.Laudano Nero
