What do reviewers say about Gao and Nero Oudh?
For those who love it, Gao becomes an obsession. That medicinal saffron opening that divides opinion? It softens within the hour, and what remains is a warm, resinous oud that stays close and long.Gao
That saffron opening is a declaration, either you're in or you're not. Thirty minutes in, and the real work begins: oud and rose, locked together, with patchouli and ambergris underneath.Nero Oudh
