  I went along with the reviews and bought it blindly since it was on discount, and it was a MISTAKE. It’s an oud bomb. Although I like strong perfumes, this one is too violent. If you like woody scents, you might like it (I recommend spraying very little), but on me, it smelled like oak furniture, even bitter, with no flowers or vanilla. For me, it’s unisex-masculine. Huge projection and 12-hour longevity; it’s not versatile, only usable in winter and at night (I clarify that it’s intolerable to my nose). My disgust was so great that I sold it within a week. I’ve never had such a strong aversion, although you might like it. I recommend smelling it in person or using a tester. I’d give the scent a 0/10.

  It’s not for me… I bought it blindly and it was a FAIL. The scent is very fussy; I consider it unisex but perhaps too masculine for me. It’s high-quality spiced, elegant, and original, but I don’t think it’s captivating or sexy, nor versatile.

  I decided to buy it blindly and have no regrets; I’m delighted. It lasts more than 7 hours. Although I consider it a bit heavy, the camphor/minty aroma can be used year-round with moderation, though I wouldn’t wear it for very elegant occasions. I don’t consider it unisex, except at the start, since it later sweetens and softens. It reminds me of a Halls honey lozenge.

  I’ve had it for months and adore it, not just for the wonderful scent but for the longevity, around 8 hours. It’s complex and has personality, not suitable for everyone. At first, I feel the sting of pepper, then it moves to delicious white flowers. My favorite part is the dry-down with oud and woods that feel skin-close even after a shower. I recommend trying it first, but if you like strong, characterful fragrances, you’ll love it.

  I used it a couple of times with samples, and indeed, it’s not for me. I didn’t like it at all; it’s too woody/attar-like and masculine for my taste.

  Very particular. Sometimes it seems more masculine; on those days, I paired it with another (feminine) fragrance, and it stood out just as much. I love that Natura uses and combines exotic aromas. It has good longevity. As several people have written, I recommend trying it before buying.

  What a surprise! It smells like potent, bright medicinal oud. It stands out more than the men’s version, which is woodier and less scandalous. It seems more masculine to me, but on a woman, it smells amazing. Perfect for an elegant, mysterious, and reserved girl. Nothing to envy from a niche fragrance. Scent 8.5/10, longevity 9/10, compliments 9/10, and recommended 100%.

  I noticed it on a coworker and wondered what she was wearing. I thought it was an exotic or medicinal blend, but it turned out to be a catalog commercial perfume. My reaction was immediate attraction, and I decided to buy it because it’s terribly mislabeled as ‘feminine.’ On my skin, it recalls vintage scents, with bursts that remind me of Dior’s Poison. The sweetness comes from plum and bitter honey, not the oud, which I can’t detect. It’s a dark oriental floral, far from innocent, wild, and carnivorous. I suspect undeclared floral notes like carnation and detect a lot of ambroxan. The minty opening is the backbone that unifies everything. I don’t detect vanilla. The dry-down is controversial: sometimes I like it, sometimes I hate it. It ends soapy, like just out of the shower. It’s mysterious how it ends up that way after such an aromatic orchestra.

  Impactful and lasts all day. It comes out strong with a scent reminiscent of medicinal syrup, but then it mellows and the oud softens with rose and jasmine. It’s neither shy nor innocent, and it lacks any synthetic notes that bother me. It’s for those who love impact: it steps forward, leaves a trail, and commands attention. I bought it thinking it was like Velvet Rose & Oud by Jo Malone, but it’s worlds apart; this is woody, resinous, exotic, and frankly overwhelming. Do I like it? No. If I don’t sell it, I’ll use it for layering so it doesn’t overpower another fragrance.

  It’s my favorite from Natura so far. It starts with plum and pepper, then evolves into a gorgeous woody rose. It makes me feel empowered and gives me a sense of power. So delicious, but don’t buy it blindly!

  It’s a scent I’d like to be identified with: mature, mysterious due to the exotic notes, elegant, and with character. It’s enjoyed more the lower the temperature, but it can also be worn in warm weather, just with moderation. It’s certainly not a good option for those who like gourmand scents, which I also enjoy, however, I identify more with this type of sweetness because everything is sweet on my skin. Don’t let yourself be guided by those who say negative things; better to know it and form your own opinion.

  On my skin, the opening evokes nuts… a prune or raisin with the wood well-marked, just as I like it, and it stays linear. After a while, you feel the wood with a sugary rose. I would describe it as: it’s not an astringent or dry wood; it’s a sweet floral wood (which doesn’t overwhelm, bother, or cloy). As it dries, you still feel the wood with a bit of vanilla that closes the sweetness. It’s not a gourmand vanilla, but it’s noticeable and sweetens the wood, making this a beautifully feminine, elegant perfume that I imagine on a serious and empowered woman. Its longevity exceeds 12 hours. I consider it versatile, more for autumn, winter, and early spring. I don’t think there’s a problem using it during the day or at night; it goes excellent at any time.

  Love at first sniff. As soon as I smelled it, I felt: Love, Passion, and other things. It’s beautiful, the best from Natura, by far. The oud, pink pepper, and rose are very noticeable. Longevity 20, sillage 20, scent 20, packaging 20. Would I buy it again? Always. I love it; it’s unique. I have other oud perfumes, and none resemble this one. Essencial Oud is a marvel, like all of Natura’s. I recommend trying it before buying because it’s not for every taste. It’s special! If you like sweet gourmand, floral, and citrus scents, I don’t think you’ll like it. It’s more intense, sweet, woody, and spicy! I recommend it for cold climates and night outings.

  I love it; it’s my daily perfume. It’s not discreet at all; it has personality and makes itself known. I don’t think it’s a good idea to buy it blindly; you might not like it if you’re not used to this type of aroma.

  Essential feminine oud; it’s a voluptuous fragrance with an undeserved bad reputation. While it is dense, it can please many people in the right seasons and quantities. In my case, it behaves totally feminine, fruity, balsamic, and very sweet, without being gourmand, but rather resinous. The only ‘difficult’ accord is at the start, slightly mentholated and camphoraceous, with a medicinal smell, but the nuts, the peach (which I feel even crystallized), the praline, and the woody base are predominant. I don’t even think it’s that floral. It’s delicious and suitable and elegant in cold seasons. The projection is medium and the longevity is six hours or more. Who will like it: lovers of opulent fragrances.

  I’m not usually a fan of woody perfumes, but wow, this is delicious. I loved it, and it lasts quite a while on the skin. To me, it’s elegant, sensual, and makes you feel sophisticated. Honestly, it was a blind buy and it didn’t disappoint at all. I also bought the men’s version and loved it just as much; it’s elegant. I would buy it again without hesitation.

  Excellent fragrance; this could easily be a niche perfume; you can really smell that oud note. I perceive it as more unisex than anything else. The opening is exquisite, and as it dries down, you feel that woody oud with sweet and slightly floral notes. A wonderful creation by Natura, very addictive to smell; I love it.

  Definitely sweet, intense, and invasive. On my skin type, perfumes usually don’t last, but this one wouldn’t budge even with soap. Unfortunately, it wasn’t one of my favorites because it gave me dizziness and a headache. My recommendation is to moderate the sprays and use it at night or in winter.

  A fantastic perfume, excellent for a catalog line; I find it amazing and nothing to envy from any designer. It’s an overwhelming scent that fills spaces, seductive and dark. I loved it from start to finish: a powdery rose with immense power. It’s a fragrance that goes through several distinct, enjoyable phases. For me, it’s a delight for night wear or cold afternoons, ideal for autumn and winter. I’d dare say it’s the best perfume from Natura. Very much in the style of Lancôme’s Oud Bouquet. I always buy it again; it’s addictive.

  I absolutely love it; it’s my favorite from Natura. It’s incredibly well-made, delicious, and unique—nothing like anything I’ve smelled before. I envision it on a mysterious, dark, and elegant woman who loves leather, aged between 27 and 50, though it’s unisex and men can wear it too. The fragrance evolves beautifully: it starts sweet, but the oud always dominates, followed by pepper and sandalwood, before returning with amber and nutty notes. The longevity is brutal; on clothes, it lasts nearly a month. When I open the closet, it smells amazing for the first two weeks, and I even have to wash clothes twice. On skin, it won’t leave unless you shower, lasting two days sometimes, and you can even smell it on yourself. Note: this isn’t for everyone; it has a strong personality and might be intimidating. I hope they never discontinue it.

  I bought it blind, hadn’t tried it, and went for it because of the TikTok hype. It’s a complex perfume and I knew I’d have a hard time getting used to it. It didn’t disappoint, but it cost me a while to make friends with it. On my skin, the wood and black pepper were very strong; I felt it was unisex but leaning masculine. I didn’t smell the rose, the sweetness, and it didn’t last more than 5/6 hours. Over the days, I learned to appreciate it and now I love it. I’ve worn it alone and also as a layering piece with something sweeter. It complements a very sweet scent perfectly and boosts it a lot this way. I’d buy it a hundred times again.

  It’s very similar to, if not quite as good as, Avon’s FAR AWAY ROYALE, and look, I swallowed that Avon one with pure praise. It also fits the style of Dior Addict by Dior, NU by YSL, ABSOLU by Rochas, BE DELICIOUS NIGHT by Donna Karan—pure class and beauty of scents that say, ‘I am absolute and sensual elegance reaching into the darkest carnality.’ This one has a regal, powerful wood of oud and cedar sandalwood with that very powdery rose note sprinkled with patchouli, opening with very resinous, smoky vanilla and amber like medicinal ointment and some mystical camphor. A beautiful scent I got on sale and I’m getting more bottles of this delicious richness that left me fascinated and spellbound in absolute pleasure. It’s very unisex, great for winter days or cool summer evenings after rain… It also fits the style of Versace’s OUD NOIR.

  If you like woody and vanilla scents, this is the one. Unisex. I recommend smelling it first because it’s quite strong and particular. Nothing to envy from imports. I always have it in my collection; it can never be missing.

  If you like florals, powdery, sweet, fruity, vanilla, intimate, clean, or fresh scents… stay away. To my taste, it’s one of the worst I’ve tried, because I enjoy creamy woody bases like sandalwood that hold fresh notes, but I feel this is almost pure wood. I saw they declare many notes that didn’t exist for me. I tried it in-store because I read reviews, and luckily I didn’t buy blind like I usually do. I couldn’t stand it from the start, had to go to the mall bathroom to wash my arm three times and it was still there. I put on Zara’s Golden Decay and it didn’t cover it. By 3 hours I was home and washed my hands twice more, and right at the skin it was still lingering. So I don’t doubt it’s eternal in longevity, but to me, it’s very rough. I don’t think the problem is that it’s masculine, but that it’s rough because it lacks balance; I get the impression it wasn’t harmonious in its creation, they just thought about adding a lot of something that lasts, at the cost of a headache. Before washing, I smelled burnt wood; I wouldn’t want to smell like a fire, there are perfumes with smoky notes like Club de Nuit Woman or LouLou that I enjoy a lot, but seriously, a smell of burnt wood like a fire or crematorium. I hope no one is offended since everyone has different tastes. If you’re looking for enjoyable woods… then try Mon Guerlain or its similar, which I love: Noir Seductive by Guess… vanilla not from the bakery, accompanied by woods, powdery, pleasant, delicate but with character.

  I love strong perfumes and a friend said, ‘You have to try this, it lingers in the room for hours.’ That was all I needed to go try it. It’s out of the ordinary and I liked that. To me, it’s 100% unisex. It lasted more than 8 hours on my skin and days on clothes. It smells different on my skin than on the blotter. On the blotter, I smell more wood and it becomes powdery, even reminding me of Kenzo Jungle when it hits that ‘rice pudding’ note. But on my skin, it turned sweeter and more feminine. Once dry, I only smelled sweet roses; it reminded me of Mancera’s Roses Vanille or its Zara dupe. Does anyone else smell this similarity? Because on my skin, it ended up being EXACTLY the same. I noticed they share notes. Anyway, it’s weird. Not a blind buy. I loved it, but I think it can change on the skin.

  As a man, I consider this a gem. What a delicious oud/rose combo; it’s delicate and perfectly niche. As Andrés Perfume says: SPECTACULAR, DELICIOUS.

  Horrible. I bought it blind looking for something intense with good longevity. Nothing to highlight, just a smell of burnt wood. I tried it and straight to the trash bin, not even for a friend.

  I found what I was looking for. After reading several reviews, I bought it blind with fear due to the versions I’d found. It’s love-hate, but for me, it was love at first sniff. I’ve been searching for that special scent that isn’t always easy to find, and here it is. It’s special, uncommon, intense but not invasive. It makes me feel good. It’s sweet, original, refined—exactly what I wanted to feel. I’d wear it every day, anytime, any season. Thanks Natura, much better than any import. I already ordered the refill at an incredible price. I’m happy.

  Strong scent, if you like intense stuff, this is for you. The black pepper has presence throughout the trail. To me, it smells very strong and leans masculine.

  Smells like Initio’s Atomic Rose but much more wearable. It’s close to Lattafa’s Bade’e Al Oud Amethyst without that intense spice or overpowering rose; it’s more feminine and understated. I love it, it feels unisex to me. The wood doesn’t overpower, it just adorns a ripe rose with a spiced sweetness. If you wear intense perfumes, wear this blind; if not, don’t let the floral notes fool you because they aren’t the main event. I was scared by the reviews, expecting a beastly woody scent, but got a classic, feminine love potion instead.

  No exaggeration, it beats many designer scents. Incredible quality for a catalog fragrance. It’s intense, mysterious, and unique. If you wear it, no one goes unnoticed; the sillage and projection make a statement. It lasts hours on skin and days on clothes. Watch out: it’s woody and unisex, not for tender sides or romantic dates, but to show off the sexy and empowered side. Ideal for outdoor events in autumn or winter. In enclosed spaces, be careful with the amount because it can be overwhelming.

  I treated a member of the public and a woman around 50 smelled exactly like Cacharel’s Amor Amor. I asked what she was wearing, and although she might have been confused, she told me it was this one. Haha.

  Yesterday at a family gathering, I asked who was wearing Bharara King because it smelled exactly the same. They looked at me strangely until my cousin clarified it was Essential Oud. The resemblance is brutal.

  It took me a while to warm up to it. It was very intense at first, but then I fell in love with its incredible performance. The pepper and woods are very present, very refined and eternal. Don’t buy it blindly. It looks like a niche scent but it’s a catalog fragrance… INCREDIBLE. However, for my taste, it lacks a touch of sweetness. Spectacular and mysterious.

  I tried this perfume and it didn’t hook me at all; of course, if you’re not a fan of unisex scents and you like woody and spicy notes, you won’t like it. I like that it’s original, but it’s not for me.

• Diegol123

  I see Essential Oud as ideal for men until I got a sealed 2019 batch; the new one is more potent and dense, but the old one has a better rose essence, more upfront with the oud and balsam, plus dense vanilla without being sweet. Unfortunately, the new one feels flat—it’s just a pretty fragrance. The old one has character, it’s a shame it’s impossible to find. If you put it in a designer bottle, people will call you out on it, except for the alcohol blast which lasts a minute. We’ll have to see if oxidation changes it or makes it denser, because the first hour projects so strongly it’s intimidating.

• Reika989

  At first, I couldn’t stand it; it seemed too woody and strong, plus it’s easy to recognize. It gave me a headache on my skin, so I had to stop, but I kept trying until I found the right way to wear it. Now it’s addictive—I don’t care if half the country is using it. 25 ml lasts me a long time; it’s potent and not for every day or season.

  Honestly, I loved it from the first spritz. I’ve been wearing it for a couple of years now, and it’s so elegant, dark, and sophisticated that it’s not for everyone.

  I tried this years ago and initially thought it was very masculine and strong, but years later I absolutely fell in love with it. On my skin, it’s super woody, and its longevity, sillage, and quality rival designer brands; plus, in Argentina, it often has good discounts ☺️
