I wear this literally every day. One of the few colognes I've actually gotten compliments on. My wife hates it right away when I spray it, but as it dries down, 10 minutes in or so, she LOVES it. Its dry, SMOOTH, masculine, and just smells awesome. And its cheap as hell. I smelled Oud Wood and knew I wanted to smell like this but couldn't afford the TF, found this and bought 3 bottles immediately. Highly highly recommended. Been waiting for your take on this, recommended it awhile back and you mentioned in a reply that you had something in the works, glad to see you enjoy it!
Good stuff. I can definitely see this being a signature scent and my wife seems to be the same when it comes to her feelings on it. Definitely likes it more later on.
Hello Gerard, I'm digging the first impressions. This is a great Fragrance. Woody Oud is so good! I have had for about a month and I love it. I'm a Baptist Minister and I wear it to church, and nursing home, funerals etc. Stay safe brother BTW great longevity!
I ordered both Maison Alhambra woody oud and tobacco touch, fantastic frags for the low $20 range. Both are very smooth and have good performance, Maison Alhambra is killing the budget banger market.
Thanks for the shout out Gerard I will say the Tobacco Touch and Woody Oud are the only two in the line that are really worth getting the others are just ok .
Just got this in from Amazon, sprayed it on my hand and whoa! The first thing I thought of was getting into a high-end luxury car with leather seats. But....initially there was this unpleasant sweet almost cherry like scent that was most prominent. It blended well after dying down about 10-minutes though. Very masculine, leathery, woody yet creamy. Next to CDNIM this one is at the top of my list.
Sup, G! You are correct, and Woody Oud is not only the best Oud Wood clone out there, but it's the best clone frag I've ever tried, period. In fact, it's so good that it even outperforms the OG, and if you gave me a bottle of each, I'd sell the TF and keep Woody Oud. Add to that the ridiculously low price that it sells for, and the ridiculously high price that the OG sells for, and it smashes it in terms of value.
I also have a clone of TF Oud wood but it’s fragrance worlds version called Oud Wonder. It’s a solid clone as well and I never felt the the need to purchase another bottle of oud wood after getting my hands on the clone. I’d be curious to see how close it is to the Maison Alhambra version
I haven't smelled Woody Oud yet, but have Maison Alhambra's Tobacco Touch (Tobacco Vanille clone) and Toscano Leather (Tuscan Leather) and both are very well done. They also do versions of PDM Herod and Pegasus which are great as well. I've had Woody Oud on my radar, looks like a must have too!
Literally every weekend rack store hunting: "oh, is this woody oud by Maison Alhambra? Nope, it's oudy Wood by Milestone" gets me everytime. Never sniffed the OG, but the one clone I've sniffed got me pricing Tom Ford bottles lol.
@@kingmo6002 no idea about performance, but you can find the milestone easily at TJ Maxx and Marshall's in the US in whatever section has the lesser known fragrances. (I. E. Not in the glass case!). Looks like a Tom Ford bottle
I've seen the Milestone Oud Woody at TJ Maxx a bazillion times and it's spot on. Don't imagine this one is any less so with how much money they're making. Another really good one is Absolute by Elite Gentleman from Avon. It's a different take on Oud Wood. Oud Wood is like a plank of moist wood and the Avon is like you left that plank out to dry in the summer.
I have it, and it definitely has the oud/poo smell. If the poo smell disappeared I'd absolutely love it. As of now, I wear it at home once in a while, trying to learn to like oud.
I have Tobacco Touch and F***ing Fabulous. Both are good. Don’t bother getting the current version of Oud Wood, if you can find a gold plated bottle, which is pre-reformulation for cheap it’s worth it.
Nice take on a very nice clone. I've purchased 3 bottles of the stuff, was about to go for a 4th but tried Oud Wonder by Fragrance World instead. IMHO Wonder is closer because it has a sweeter/creamier accord that gets a little closer to the OG. Until I purchased a decant of the original...and realized just how good Oud Wood Really is once it macerates. Neither of the clones out perform it contrary to what I initially thought. Do I still love Oud Wonder/Woody Oud? Absolutely. Would I buy Oud Wood? Absolutely Not.
@@bn9235 In my opinion, well...I'd like to say that Oud Wonder is better but Honestly they just capture different aspects of Oud Wood. There is more evolution in Oud Wonder which makes it more similar to Oud Wood because it has a sweetness that Woody Oud doesn't. Woody Oud captures the Opening of Oud Wood and kinda stays there. Which isn't bad..its just Linear. I like both honestly. Oud Wood is better than both...but not $400 better.
I had Woody Oud and on my skin it smelled like doodoo and got rid of it. I much prefer Zaffiro Crafted Oud by Maison Alhambra. Its a clone of Thameen Carved Oud which in turn is a better version of TF Oud Wood.
My God Gerard":: try oud wonder..I'm an oud wood Zipperhead": Big time' own almost all including a 2006 formulation of my very first Bottle of TF oud wood and between carved oud by Thameen and oud wonder there In my opinion the closest

Also, Bright Peach the Bitter Peach clone, is awesome too. Bought it for my wife and she wears it all the time
Yes heard that's excellent.

I don't have a son, but I have made both a cat and a friend on a road trip watch your videos, and I think that's pretty close.
You I appreciate and you alone my friend!
Hello Gerard, I'm digging the first impressions. This is a great Fragrance. Woody Oud is so good! I have had for about a month and I love it. I'm a Baptist Minister and I wear it to church, and nursing home, funerals etc. Stay safe brother BTW great longevity!
I can see this DNA fitting most situations Greg for sure.
I ordered both Maison Alhambra woody oud and tobacco touch, fantastic frags for the low $20 range. Both are very smooth and have good performance, Maison Alhambra is killing the budget banger market.
They are my favorite middle eastern house thus far. By far the best quality of frags IMO.
Hiya , can you share the link in amazon please ?
Thanks for the shout out Gerard I will say the Tobacco Touch and Woody Oud are the only two in the line that are really worth getting the others are just ok .
Of course! Tobacco Touch I'll have to try next.
Yeah they did their thing with those clones. I need to get the peach one back
I've heard nothing but good things about the peach.
Just got this in from Amazon, sprayed it on my hand and whoa! The first thing I thought of was getting into a high-end luxury car with leather seats.

Great description! Glad you are enjoying it.
I have this one now. The discounter finally restocked so I snagged a bottle. Cheers.
Nice grab!
I have this fragrance. It is fantastic IMO. Really worth the price.
Totally agree.
I have Woody Oud, Lovely Chèrie, and Bright Peach. They're all solid.
Bright peach I've heard great things.
Sup, G! You are correct, and Woody Oud is not only the best Oud Wood clone out there, but it's the best clone frag I've ever tried, period.

Its awesome stuff no question.

Someone else mentioned this one as well maybe I can do a comparison video.
I haven't smelled Woody Oud yet, but have Maison Alhambra's Tobacco Touch (Tobacco Vanille clone) and Toscano Leather (Tuscan Leather) and both are very well done. They also do versions of PDM Herod and Pegasus which are great as well. I've had Woody Oud on my radar, looks like a must have too!
That tobacco vanille sounds like a must try. I have the Tuscan leather DNA already in the collection.
I think you'll like Tobacco Touch, and at the price, you can't go wrong.@@gerardgeorge
Thanks for the nice video! Just wanted to point out that the audio volume drops a little bit around 2:25.
Thanks trying to sort it out!
Thanks G! How does it compare to Oud Woody from Milestone?
This is better in my opinion but they are both solid.
Good info! Subscribed.
Wondering if you've come across a decent Tom Ford Noir Extreme clones.
Thanks brotha. Not yet but I own the real thing and it’s one of my favorites.
Literally every weekend rack store hunting: "oh, is this woody oud by Maison Alhambra? Nope, it's oudy Wood by Milestone" gets me everytime. Never sniffed the OG, but the one clone I've sniffed got me pricing Tom Ford bottles lol.
Hahahaha spot on.
Where can I get ? An dhow long does it last for ?
@@kingmo6002 no idea about performance, but you can find the milestone easily at TJ Maxx and Marshall's in the US in whatever section has the lesser known fragrances. (I. E. Not in the glass case!). Looks like a Tom Ford bottle
Good review!
Thanks Vance!
Nice love the video G stay motivated dream big 1 mill on the way
Appreciate it Antwain!

Love that description. I like Oud Woody as well and for that price at rack stores its hard to beat.
Nah man the masion alhambra one crushes milestones 💪
Try Zaffiro Crafted Oud, clone of Carved Wood by Thameen . Very similar to Oud Wood, but better. Beautiful bottle also
Someone else mentioned this as well I will do that.
I have it, and it definitely has the oud/poo smell. If the poo smell disappeared I'd absolutely love it. As of now, I wear it at home once in a while, trying to learn to like oud.
Thankfully I dont get that but to your point it could just be my nose is used to it.
I have Tobacco Touch and F***ing Fabulous. Both are good. Don’t bother getting the current version of Oud Wood, if you can find a gold plated bottle, which is pre-reformulation for cheap it’s worth it.
Yes great point the gold plated was phased out.
Versace Oud Noir is very close to Oud Wood as well.
This is one that has been on the short list for awhile.

Thanks for your take!
Is Oud Wonder better than Woody Oud after maceration... Hope to understand from you as you have tried both & tested with the OG... Thanks !
@@bn9235 In my opinion, well...I'd like to say that Oud Wonder is better but Honestly they just capture different aspects of Oud Wood.

I heard the performance and projection is really bad on Woody Oud, did you experience the same?
It wasn't bad at all but did sit a bit closer to the skin.
I just got it
The smell is sooooo good. Idk how close it is to the original but its sexy even if its not that close.@@gerardgeorge
How does this compare to Oud Wonder?
Haven't tried it yet but many have mentioned it.
Where can I buy?
Amazon
I linked it it to Amazon in the description.
How long does it last for ?
All day for me
What store u bought this?
A subscriber sent this to me not sure where he got it.
The oud wood is like crack, new top 5 and huge compliment getter for $25
Amazing scent. I love it.
I had Woody Oud and on my skin it smelled like doodoo and got rid of it. I much prefer Zaffiro Crafted Oud by Maison Alhambra. Its a clone of Thameen Carved Oud which in turn is a better version of TF Oud Wood.
That would be a no go for me as well! I'll have to try that one I haven't yet.
My God Gerard":: try oud wonder..I'm an oud wood Zipperhead": Big time' own almost all including a 2006 formulation of my very first Bottle of TF oud wood and between carved oud by Thameen and oud wonder there In my opinion the closest
Yes many people have mentioned these sound like a must try.
👍👍™️
Lets go!
