I’ve always wondered if there is nose fatigue, or if it really is batches/reform. My bottle last legit 8+ hours. It isn’t beastly projection but my partner noticed it after an entire work day at 4:45pm(sprayed on at 6:15am). Went for a walk and she mentioned my scent. But damn you’re so spot on, I too get that soapy freshness. Some Have argued this with me, so happy to hear you have a similar experience.
Imagine doing what you love and being great at it, having a great fragrance review channel that will only continue to grow, dedicated fans like myself, a gorgeous wife, and a stellar “Reeee” that catches me off guard every time and sometimes brings me to tears.
I agree, great fragrance in terms of smell, but short-lived. I get about 3 hours so I must be satisfied. Oud wood parfum solves this issue, but it is very expensive.
I agree with you.. to me it's an after shower, wearing a robe before bed or running errands scent. It's creamy, rich, with a hint of sweetness. Absolutely beautiful scent but it does not project at all and barely noticeable on skin after like 3hrs.
Greatest fragrance I've ever smelled. I bought the little 1oz bottle because it's just so expensive. But I'm lucky it last all day long on me. It doesn't protect but it's so soft and comforting I don't want it to project But it last 8 hours easily on my skin. I bought Versace oud noir in order to hopefully make my bottle last longer but it in no way shape or form come close to oud wood. Its not even in the same ballfield the Versace smells good but it just smells like and old school masculine scent.
This is one of my fav frag by Tom Ford/fav oud fragrance. "Running errand" fragrance because it doesn't last long hmm, I would probably say it could be still worn in a nice corporate event at night for 2 hours or a date night type of fragrance to me. It still has that sexy vibe to it where I would not wear it while going to stop & shop :) ( where ever people wanna wear it, it's fine of course) Mostly day time especially in Summer I go with Tom Ford Costa Azzurra or Amouage Beach Hut. I usually apply 1 spray each on my neck , 1 back , and 1 spray to each side of my chest area and great for 3 hours on me which is enough , to me not every fragrance meant to be a monster mode and last 8 hours in my opinion.
@CgScents ohh I understand where you coming from brother, maybe could also lean on wearing it on your clothes rather than your skin, especially certain frags. I have a huge collection actually and honestly Oud Wood is one of the frags that never smelled before
cg i know you have musc ravageur as one of your fav fragrances, i was wondering if its still a good cop. I know the fredrick lemalle fragrances was bought by estee lauder and im wonderingi if the performance is till good on musc ravageur?
@@saroushabid4720 you’re gonna read a bunch of people saying Musc Ravageur isn’t what it use to be and you can also find Reddit threads where people say the new version is better. I never get into reformulations if the current version doesn’t make me happy I don’t purchase it because I don’t want an endless FOMO batch hunt to me it’s a waste of time and money. I’d try a current sample and see how you feel about it Musc ravageur is a very polarizing fragrance. I can’t comprehend not liking it I find nothing challenging with it but a lot of people struggle with this one. I have a 2022 and 2021 bottle I have sampled a 2023 and was happy with all of them.
I tested it at Sephora and got the same results as an official sample as my decant. Looking at the comments your experience seems more exceptional than typical. I’ve heard people get 8 hours and I’m like ‘how?’ Really strange.
I wore this to meet a group of people. I did 8 sprays on different parts of my body. When I offered a tester strip, they said: "it smells good". But when I asked: "did you smell it off me?" -"nope" also if you spray it on skin and sweat even just liiitle bit - its gone.
@ I think the Borouj Lamasat Oud I referenced is actually a clone of carved Oud. A clone of a clone 😅. I’ll try carved Oud soon I was always turned off by the price but if it performs better than Oud wood it’s more worth it for sure.
New batch here and it lasts 8-10 hours...but i have kinda oily skin...it s a linear scent so it smells the same until the end. It s an alpha male scent just like aventus but Creed smells more natural. You get freshness?? How lucky you are...On me zero freshness...
Kredo by nishane does oud wood better than actual oud wood. I love oud wood. just wish it was a better performer, if so i'd poor my money and soul into it...
Kredo is denser & doesnt have the same elegant effect as Oud Wood to my nose. I really only wear Kredo in cooler weather. Oud Wood is more versatile. My favorite out of all these DNA's is Carved Oud though.

I’ve followed some of your other ventures on TH-cam. Just ran across this one. Thanks for the transparency and honesty. Subbed.

perfect statistics in the intro and perfect review CG!

thank you for bringing up Lamasat Oud Borouj, i believe it is highly slept on!!!
I had a sample of oud wood long ago. I barely remember what it smelled like but I have Thameen carved oud and I enjoy that very much.
I get nose blind. Hours after spraying I get compliments. Also it’s a great fall cold weather fragrance.
My Oud Wood is from 2017. It lasts until the next day, performance is great. I’m sure it’s been reformulated to not be as strong anymore.

It’s my favorite Tom ford so far too there’s still a lot I haven’t worn but Oud wood is easily my favorite on scent alone
I wish I got 3 hours it maybe a skin chemistry thing but for me it’s definitely around one hour

Do ormonde jayne montabaco intensivo next?!😊👍
Also nawab of oudh intensivo

If you like this, try Diptyque's Tempo - most underrated and not spoken about fragrance and very long lasting
Love Tempo. Probably in my top 5 favorites in my collection.
Please do a xerjoff uden review🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Nishane Kredo is the best in this segment of fragrances, maybe and Thameen Carved Oud, they are the best. If you didn’t, try?!
I wear Thameen’s Carved Oud too, I’m enjoying both so far, layer with Molecule 01, 02, or DS&Durga I Don’t Know What to get a zhuzh ✨
you should review the new oud wood parfum
Do I have nose blindess to this one? Or does it really have poor longevity?
Any alrernatives that have stronger longevity?
thats crazy bro, my oud wood lasts for about 8hrs, i constantly smell it on me throughout its duration.

you need to get carved oud CG. Its better in every way and fixes performance issues.
Versace Oud noir is also a great similar DNA
Beautiful fragrance that lasts 1 hour. I can smell it on my skin but I have to try hard.
review carved oud
I will. Up next is Dior Homme intense and Carlisle 😎 love wearing those
Thameen Carved oud last longer and smells really good.
@ I think the Borouj Lamasat Oud I referenced is actually a clone of carved Oud. A clone of a clone 😅. I’ll try carved Oud soon I was always turned off by the price but if it performs better than Oud wood it’s more worth it for sure.
@@CgScents how is Lamasat oud?? I own carved oud but want to save the juice and have a clone for casual use?
@glamconnor I never tried carved Oud but I prefer Lamasat to Oud wood. Borouj makes quality for sure I also have Sillage and Perlador love them.
best oud trust me

Layer it with noir extreme!
There are several wood fragrances that last pretty well. Oud Wood is super weak.
it lasts over 8 hours on me, the whole work day. I can still smell it on me when I get back home from work. Nice fragrance, not my favorite tho
Kredo by nishane does oud wood better than actual oud wood.
I love oud wood. just wish it was a better performer, if so i'd poor my money and soul into it...
@@tjpfz6 bro I feel that last sentence 100%
I really love the scent profile
Kredo is denser & doesnt have the same elegant effect as Oud Wood to my nose. I really only wear Kredo in cooler weather. Oud Wood is more versatile. My favorite out of all these DNA's is Carved Oud though.
It’s nice for sure but Tom ford is an absolute rip off last 30 mins on me . If it were half the price fair enough
Great review m8
