What do reviewers say about Oud Wood Intense and Splendid Wood?
Oud Wood Intense is unapologetically dark and animalic. The oud and smoke in the drydown are not subtle, they are the whole point. It commands the entire room.Oud Wood Intense
Splendid Wood does not whisper. The opening hits hard, the drydown lingers for an entire workday, and the oud in the base is not for the faint of heart. This is a statement.Splendid Wood
