  1. Oud Immortel smells modern and masculine, with a wood base that works for everything: casual wear or going out. It starts with an acidic, bitter lemoncello note from the ambroxan, reminiscent of Promise by Frederic Malle. There’s no real oud here, just dry, green patchouli mixed with old wood and Cashmeran, giving it that smoky tobacco vibe I barely notice. I really like it; it’s a great fragrance for mild or cold days. Cheers!

  2. Oud Inmortel smells modern, masculine, and woody, with great performance and high versatility. It’s casual enough for daily wear but classy enough for special occasions. It opens with a lemon accord thanks to its citrus notes and a dose of ambroxan that adds acidity and a slight bitterness, reminding me of Promise by Frederic Malle. There’s no oud despite the name, but there is a very prominent, dry, woody patchouli with green touches. Kephalis, with its old-wood scent, and Cashmeran, with its patchouli, reinforce that woody vibe that could be mistaken for oud, plus they hint at that tobacco note I barely detect. I like it; it’s a great fragrance and very wearable in mild and cold weather. Cheers.

    This is Hacivat + Oud, and they’ve turned it into a delight. The lemon-cardamomo blend reminds me of pineapple, but not the sweet kind—the acidic kind—which, combined with the woods and smoke, creates a very rich composition. The oud here is noble and easy to wear, while the lemon gives it a sharp character. Projection is normal, and longevity is good.

    Hacivat + Oud is a delight. The lemoncello with cardamomo smells like pineapple, but acidic, not sweet; combined with the woods and smoke, the blend is incredible. The oud here is noble and easy to wear, adding a sharp character alongside the citrus. Average projection and good longevity.

    Just tried it and I absolutely loved it. It reminds me of a Cedrat Boise loaded with oud, nothing unpleasant, quite the opposite—it’s spectacular. It fits perfectly on my list.

  6. This fragrance doesn’t deserve its name; it’s simply disgusting. I’d categorize it as ‘repulsive and foul.’ Don’t even think about wearing it on your skin: it won’t wash off. It does last, but if you want to leave a trail of ash and fertilizer, go ahead and use it.

  7. For the price, it’s a rip-off; I wouldn’t buy it, though it doesn’t bother me or make me lose my mind. It has a vibe similar to Aventus, which I also like, but I still wouldn’t pay that outrageous price. Acceptable perfume but excessively expensive.

  8. Lemoncello + Black XS + earth/fertilizer, that’s all it is. Rarely have I washed my arm to get a fresh perfume off, but that happened with this one. The oud from this house is denigrating; it smells like industrial earth from plant fertilizer packets.

  9. As Sibarita says, Oud Immortel is identical to Black XS, just a niche version at an exorbitant price of €160 for 50ml. Basically, a total scam. Rating: 1.

  10. It’s an oud + lemoncello combo that smells like pineapple to me, but citrusy, not sweet. The moss and tobacco complete the fragrance, drying down to wood, green, and citrus because the lemoncello never goes away. It might remind you of Aventus due to the smoky and citrusy touch, but they aren’t the same. It lasts quite a while with average projection. It doesn’t smell bad, but it didn’t say anything to me.

  11. It’s an oud + lemon combo that smells like pineapple to me, but not the sweet kind—more citrusy. The moss and tobacco finish it off, leaving a dry-down that’s woody, green, and acidic since the lemon never fades. It reminds me a bit of Aventus with that smoky, citrusy touch, but they’re not the same. Lasts quite well with average projection. It doesn’t smell bad, but honestly, it didn’t do anything for me.

  12. It reminds me of Paco Rabanne Black XS; they share several notes: Brazilian rosewood, patchouli, and cardamom.
