If you're expecting something similar to Bentley For Men Intense that everyone on youtube cannot stop praising this is far from it. Change is fine. I have around 20 fragrances I alternate between but this is a generic Middle Eastern fragrance plain and simple. I wish they came up with a different name to this such as Bentley For Men Intense Oud or something more fitting. Although this is compared to a discontinued Gucci fragrance that doesn't excuse the fact that it is like spraying a nice dark and woody fragrance on someone who hasn't showered in days and the fragrance just amplifies the mans body odor instead of masking it. It's a touch spicy, it's got this aura to it. But the filthy barn yard papery oud smell I just shudder at. When it dries down it becomes more sharp and woody but unless you're into fragrances like cumin that is found in Mexican cuisine this is not going to be something you'll like.

The projection is quite good. 10 or so feet from very few sprays I could smell it on my brother. The longevity isn't bad. But unless you're into middle eastern fragrances, grew up around them or just into the fad that is oud fragrances you'll dislike this. Get ANY other Bentley. The only good oud fragrance I've tried is Oud For Glory so far.

I can confirm that the batch being sold here projects poorly and its longevity is nowhere near as good as it used to be. Shame. It's a beautiful fragrance.

Smells rich
