The deepest, smokiest, and most luscious oud I've tried.
The smell remains consistent over time. [6-8 hours sillage/projection on skin or clothing; remains for 24-72 hours on clothing, up close and personal].

To get an idea of its performance, imagine:
smelling like you've been standing around a campfire burning high grade wood (or even solid incense) for multiple hours. As you know, the smell of burnt wood remains in your clothing for awhile afterwards, so you spray on a pure oud and balance it off with something more refreshing like bergamot and patchouli. As a distinguished man, you're bound to wear some leather, if only a belt around your waist. A passer by would describe your scent as smokey and spicy.

This is straight up Amouage Interlude Man clone. 95% precision, same performance too. I have multiple bottles of the original Interlude Man and a bottle of 53, and for 1/10 the price I’m mostly using this instead. This is amazing deal, but again, you must love darker incensy smoky scent profile. I like to layer this with something iris-forward and strong like Givenchy Gentleman EDP or Alexandria Leather Intense (Dior Homme Parfum clone).

This fragrance is definitely not for everyone. To start, spray once behind each ear. That's all you really need as the fragrance is a heavyweight. It takes about an hour for the potency to start to mellow out into a sweet abyss and I mean SWEET: Sensual, Woozy, Extreme Oud, Exuberant, Tasteful. This a heavy fragrant, a 747 of richness....if you overdoit in sprays you will get a headache, guarantee....but if you just spray a wee bit you will smell great!!!

Best for fall, winter, evening date or night at opera. Lasts over 12 hours....strong for the first 4 hours.

Enjoy it!

Incredibly strong scent. Let it sit for an hour and the notes are superb. Projection is amazing. I agree it isn't for everyone but if you enjoy Oud this is perfect. I layer it with a vanilla scent and I've gotten lots of compliments.
