    What do reviewers say about First Date and Oud Wood?

    Sweet enough to commit to. Warm enough to mean it. This isn't the fragrance that plays it safe, it's the one that reaches for you when the room is half-lit.First Date
    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
