    What do reviewers say about Forbidden Words Bombay Gourmand and Oud Wood?

    The original Forbidden Words had bite. This one feeds you instead. Rose and orange blossom soften the opening, then oud and salted caramel take over, the sweetness isn't innocent, it's patient.Forbidden Words Bombay Gourmand
    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
