What do reviewers say about Aoud Gourmet and Royal Oud?
This one lives firmly in sweet niche territory. The honey and marzipan opening is unmistakably edible, but the clove and patchouli heart keeps things from getting too sugary.Aoud Gourmet
Oud and vanilla shouldn't work together. One is resinous and brooding, the other Desserty and soft. Royal Oud makes them neighbours anyway, and somehow they get along.Royal Oud
