What do reviewers say about Nawaf and Tobacco Oud?
The saffron oud opening is confrontational, sharp, almost metallic, the kind of thing that either hooks you immediately or makes you reconsider. If that sounds like a warning, it shouldn't.Nawaf
The whiskey opening polarizes. Some swear it's off-putting; others describe it as the best thing about this fragrance. That disagreement is exactly the point.Tobacco Oud
