  My first oud purchase. Heads up: it needs to mature. The opening smells synthetic with rose and wood, but after a few hours it improves dramatically: the rose fades, leaving a sweet, floral, balsamic, dark scent with a subtle smoky touch. It looks elegant, not cloying. Don’t test it directly on skin; it shines in the air. I think it’s unisex, though it leans masculine as it dries down. Longevity is monstrous: 12 hours with 4 sprays and it fills the room. Lasts days on clothes, reminiscent of fabric softener. Better for cold weather.

  My first fragrance purchase with an oud note. Heads up: it needs to mature. The opening is very synthetic with rose and wood, but after drying down for a couple of hours, it improves significantly, the rose lowers, and it becomes sweet, floral, balsamic, and dark for hours with a subtle smoky tone I don’t always perceive. It gives the impression of wearing something elegant because it’s not cloying. I recommend not smelling it directly from the skin when testing, as it feels better in the air. Overall, I think it’s unisex, though as it dries down, it leans masculine. It has monstrous longevity of at least 12h with 4 sprays and fills rooms. It lingers on clothes for days and reminds me of fabric softener. Better for cold temperatures.

  For me, it’s a masterpiece: that strong workshop smell mixed with very ripe red fruits (sweet and sour) makes you think it’s going to be a beast, but the intensity drops quickly and leaves a scent heavily marked by wood, incense (not listed), and a very soft floral. It would be one of my favorites if it had more projection and longevity. On clothes, it lasts 24h or more; on skin, about 6-7h and very sillage-free. For those worried about compliments… zero. For those comparing it to Opulent Oud… zero too; the oud in Opulent is almost fecal, but this is identical to Swiss Arabian’s Shagaf Oud turned down a notch. 10 for scent, 8 for longevity, 8 for projection.

  Smells 90% like Lattafa’s Opulent Oud.

  One of my favorites: rose, oud, and amber make an unbeatable blend. It’s warm, dark, and powerful without being overwhelming; the oud is elegant and not animalic at all, paired with a rich, powdery rose. Maybe better for fall/winter than summer. Perfect for formal dinners with a partner or friends.

  One of my favorites: a combination that can’t go wrong. Rose, oud, and amber. It’s warm, dark, and powerful, but not invasive. The oud is elegant and not animalic at all, and the rose is very rich. Maybe better for autumn/winter than summer. Perfect for a formal dinner with your partner or friends.

  I found it the other day at a Massimo Dutti and couldn’t help but take the bottle. I love the scent: fresh out, it smells like rose with nuances of red fruits not listed and a dark oud that complements it. As it dries down, the rose dominates with the oud in the background, giving a deep, balsamic feel alongside the amber. The scent is well-cohesive; the notes blend perfectly. It’s not an offensive or difficult oud; despite being intense, it can please the public. I’d even consider it good for beginners into oud perfumes. Longevity is correct; I don’t find it as nuclear as people say; in my case, it lasts 5-7h on skin, projecting softly for 1-2h after. I’m happy with the price. I see it as more of a night scent, but it could work during the day in informal settings. Only for cold temperatures: winter, autumn, and spring depending on where you live.

  Rich aroma of synthetic gummy oud, red fruits, and rose. Brutal trail that fills the whole room and just-right longevity. Perfect for the cold, zero for work. I see it on par with any Montale, but with an exceptional price. It’s a shame it’s discontinued. The people responsible should answer to justice.

  Best for temperatures under 17°C. I don’t detect the oud or roses, or they’re too synthetic; I only smell a pretty bad amber and the fixative. At first, the rose was more noticeable, but now it’s just the amber and fixative. At €32 for 100ml, it’s okay if you just want to make a statement, but I’d rather spend more on something I actually like before using something I don’t. It’s super long-lasting, too much: still noticeable three days later, and if it lands on clothes, forget it. I don’t recommend it: I wanted a winter daily perfume, but I can’t wear this. Too strong, with nonsensical harshness and stupidly long longevity. I stopped using it after two months; I couldn’t handle it.

  Watch out for the cold, because below 17°C it really comes alive. I don’t get the oud or roses, just a synthetic amber and a fixer that don’t convince me. At first, the rose came out, but now it’s just that amber and the fixer. At 32€ for 100ml, it’s okay if you like to make a statement, but before spending more on something I don’t like, I’d rather not take the risk. It’s super long-lasting, too much; you can smell it three days later, and if it lands on your clothes, goodbye. I wouldn’t recommend it: I wanted a daily winter scent, and this isn’t it. Too strong, with meaningless harshness and stupidly long longevity. I ditched it after two months; I just couldn’t handle it.

  Red Evening is a beast: it projects and lasts for real.
