I wasn't too sure about this one at first since oud is normally less woman and more man, so i only bought the 20ml to try it. I love it. For me it 's smell like spicy rhum, but more sweet and less alcool. This is a great quality perfume and i'll probably buy a bigger bottle nect time. I love Lattafa's bottles and perfume quality.

* Perfect for amber fragrance lovers
* Rich dense blend of sweet, amber, vanilla, powder, fruit and (just barely) oud aromas
* Niche quality for discount price
* Unisex
* Good for all ages
* Great for intimate occasions
* Beautiful bottle
* Great QPR value
* Good price

* Inexplicably dropped the beautiful dome presentation despite still using it for Winners Trophy line
* Oud note is way too light for oud lovers
* Not good for those who dislike sweet fragrances
* Average performance after strong opening with low sillage but high longevity

Lattafa's Eternal Oud is a purported clone of Maison Francis Kurkdjian's Grand Soir. I have no experience with it and can only judge Eternal Oud on its own merits. And they are quite strong merits. This is pretty much a perfect amber fragrance. It's dense and rich, a blend of sweet, amber, vanilla, powder, and fruit aromas. The fruit is prominent in the opening blast and then gives way to the sweet ambery drydown. There is a touch of oud on the drydown but it's so weak that you actually have to focus on it to find it. Anyone who loves oud fragrances is sure to be disappointed. Honestly, they should have dropped the oud altogether and left as is or added a different note and renamed this. It's actually not really needed, the rest of the blend is so good.

This is a great fragrance for intimate occasions in particular and social occasionals overall. It's totally unisex and good for all ages. It's not good for those who dislike sweet fragrances and prefer a drier fragrance, but everyone else should love this. Performance is average with a strong opening and good longevity but low sillage. The price is great for what it offers. It's pretty much niche quality for discounter price. Highly recommended.

Note that the presentation has changed. The bottle is still very beautiful but the dome presentation has been removed in favor of a felt lined double box. I was wondering if it's because the dome might be too fragile and break easily during shipping but I also have a bottle of Lattafa's Winners Trophy Silver which uses the same dome presentation and it arrived in perfect condition. So I'm not sure why the change, but my photos include both the old and new presentation for your enjoyment.

Loved this the moment I got my nose on it
A scent of a nicely toasted marshmallow and some plum, Amber and vanilla
Reminds me a bit of Afnan 9PM but smoother , not as loud
I want to smell like this all day and night, it's so addictive

Fast shipping and well-packed. Just got it and I think it needs to be macerated for at least a few weeks for the full notes to come out. Regardless, it is still a beautiful scent, full of amber and vanilla with very little oud (so don't worry if you are not a fan of oud).

awesome smells, last long... great for work or personal adventures..
