Well, within the next five minutes, I was online, ordering my very own 90mL bottle. I will now pace the floor every second until it arrives. This stuff is absolutely incredible!
Over the years, I have also come to understand that people perceive concepts in different ways . Oud For Greatness is a great fragrance, so long as you don't over spray. I have a sweater that retained the far dry down for a least 1 month . . . even though there were only 2 short sprays to my neck area prior to getting dressed for the day. I find that over application will lead to a synthetic vibe that could be annoying to some. Thanks as always for sharing.
As an experiment I did two sprays of this on a 96 degree day last summer. My wife was outside in her hammock. She said she could smell it and she was about 5 yards away from where I stood. Also, Imho it does not smell like 540 enough to do a comparison. Definitely one of my favorite winter fragrances.
Also interesting how the sillage and projection bubble around smell different from when you smell it up close on your skin. The bubble is like more smooth and musky then when you go in to smell your skin you get oud and patchouli. Very neat
@@karamcharro393 believe me 2 sprays are more than enough the performance of it on my skin is crazy, maybe if I'd go clubbing with I would spray it 5 times max
@@Joshua_Cruz With a strong projecting fragrance like this one, my weird ritual is: one in the chest, one in one wrist tap into the other and tap both in the sides of my neck and one on the back of my neck, if not that strong, I add two sprays on each side of my neck, and more sprays as necessary 😁
Recently got a decant of OFG, just wow!👌 As ive gotten to my middle age, ive become much more accepting of woody, spicy and more unique fragrances. This one hits the mark! Smells amazing and lasts forever, I love wearing this juice!
I got a sample of this stuff in a order from Fragrance USA a few months ago and all I can say is the second it hit my nose instantly the words clean wood came to my mind, so, yeah. It is an amazing fragrance and I plan on ordering myself a full bottle of the stuff tomorrow!
@@ANT1714 I sold my bottle of Oud for Greatness for Aventus. My Aventus is coming in tomorrow. I just wasn’t a huge fan of Oud for Greatness. Not saying it’s a bad one at all, just wasn’t for me!
i have a samle of both, i didn't notice at first but they have a similar smell, they both have a similar sweetness Oud for great just seems more complex & has somthing 540 lacks
I actually love it I’ve owned it since October 2020 I bought it because Fragrance Usa gave me a military discount of 25% off otherwise I don’t think I would’ve paid the full 350 you know it’s probably worth it it’s just too much money for me to spend on a fragrance
@@TraianGheorghiu i just bought a bottle waiting for it to deliver i hope i dont have this issue.. for 350$ no house should ever reformulate or water down there fragrances they should be sued..
Bought mine few months ago with a 15% off..This is soo addictive and u dont have to spray that much..a little goes a looong way with the projection.The initial blast of spray did remind me of BR540 but it died down straight away within minutes.❤️
No, it doesnt smell like BR540. Yes, its an incredible scent. I got a sample of it, sprayed it and the first thing my impressed missus asked was, 'What is that!!?' Beast of a fragrance.
It's funny that he also said that it doesn't smell like BR540 however I get asked if it's BR540 all the time so clearly there is a very strong similarity
There is just something about the way this is blended. Maybe its just me, but i cant help but get an oil/water vibe, i just don’t think the blending is there. It doesn’t have a rounded off feel to me, its like two opposing sides that just never overlap, they just sit next to each other. But they’re never cohesive to my nose. Other fragrances, i can pick apart diff notes, but they usually come together to create something new. This, just stays as separate notes, that never coagulate into one. I like all the notes, just dont think they work together (here).
This is a great fragrance. I am puzzled as to how someone could find this similar to BR540. One is light, fluffy and sweet, while the other is dark, intense, and not sweet. It's like saying tea and coffee are the same.
Great review! I agree that the only similarity between this and BR540 is the saffron. I get why people draw that conclusion but if you wear OFG you easily get the Oud in the mid, which alone makes it different. I got this for Christmas, and I love it. One spray on the neck, one on my hand although I've found that kinda pointless as it gets washed off throughout the day, and speaking of the day the compliments come throughout. If you're looking for an "oud" fragrance, this might not be it, but I personally love how the saffron and oud work with each other.
The opening for OFG is phenomenal. Mind blowing if I dare so. Reminds me of when I first got into fragrances and smelled Aventus....but I still feel the same way after a year. However, that dry down is extremely boring and uninspired.
Nothing like BR540. OFG is a full on Oriental fragrance with depth and day long performance. Fragrances like this, with its mega performance, are becoming more rare because of price and versatility issues. One bottle would last a western worlder 10 years.
I See you often on fragrantica, it looks like we have a similiar Taste, because i see you in every fragrance i Look up 😀 hope you are fine. Btw did you test oud for glory?
Lol, the first thing I thought of when I sampled OFG was that it reminded me of BR540 and I was surprised as I was not expecting that. Of course they definitely are different but on both them, 90% of what I smell is the saffron which is very similar in both. The spicy oud is more in the background to my nose which disappointed me a little. I like the oud more in Oud Wood as well but also agree with your comparison there.
So for me, there’s a note in here that puts me off. It’s something medicinal, almost smells like a bandaid. It’s mostly in the dry down. Wish I could put my finger on it. Minus that note I love this cologne.
Initial blast of Oud Wood is quite appealing, but quickly becomes pink scented toilet paper on my skin. OFG for the win by a large margin! And on a woman I think OFG would be 🔥!
I smell this with a group of friends for 9 days in a row and Ya is Not even close for the name of WOW fragrance at least for a average nose, but on same days we pick Memo Paris Marfa out of 12 nice perfume was there That be said I don’t hear no one talking about Memo Paris to much not I do care but I strongly believe reviewers now days speak after they get paid or sponsored
I got Lattafa's Oud for Glory instead of this. Acoording to people that have tried both they are very close in the scent profile. I am happy with it as it is a very pleasant, creme bruleé-like smell to my untrained nose. Longevity could be better tho. Maybe you could compare those two.
Smelled it today and it instantly made me think of BR540-it's not an identical comparison at all... but theres just an interesting similarity in the smokey sweet richness/boldness of the smells. If you had told me BR400 had made a men's variation and sampled this OFG, I would have totally believed it lol. I absolutely loved this scent. It's what I hoped for with BR400(too sweet for me), this is more masculine. Smells expensive. Absolutely purchasing.
I didn’t really pick up on it on my first try but my 2nd try for some reason 540 popped straight into my head 🤷♂️ 540 and OFG don’t smell the same but the saffron does smell similar but it’s just the 1 note. I don’t like jumping on hype trains too much and especially hype trains from certain reviewers 😂😂 but I’ve only tried 2 from Initio (Oud and Side Effect) both are fantastic. Smell amazing last ages unique but mass appealing. Will be looking to try some more from Initio but yeah those 2 are freaking great
And to be honest if you simplify Oud For Greatness you could say is sort of a combo of 540 and Oud Wood (doesn’t smell like a 100% exact combo of those 2 but it is similar)
I totally understand resembling notes. I call it the Whitney Houston/Mariah Carey situation, some notes sound alike some ad libs are similar, but the overall sound is totally distinguishable and different.
To my nose the BR540 comparison goes a little longer than just the saffron, since Tuscan Leather is also a saffron bomb and doesn't remind me of the Initio for eg. I believe it's a saffron-hedione-maltol-oakmoss combo that's become the 'BR540 signature' if you will.
I bought this last week and I wore it yesterday, I never received so much compliments in one day I’m surprised it beat baccarat and I have both the original n extrait version, 2 spray is enough , dnt overspray u might be nauseous or choke others around u
I dont smell oud at all in this one. I definitely smell baccarat rouge 540 all the time. especially the red cherry like note. Initio is more metallic though. they definitely share a common synthetic that is like 40% of the receipt I'm sure...
it has some chemical component in the background identical to that of Baccarat rouge. that's why they seem so similar to people. At three or four hours the similarity is very noticeable.
Lol I like the Schwarzenegger comparison. They smell pretty different. That being said, baccarat rouge is a much better frag than our for greatness imo. Ofg is overrated and overpriced. Spot on about the tf oud wood comparison.
Illuminati confirmed forsure. First time smelling this, I was instantly reminded and almost transported to a time of my life when I happened to experiment with something that also transported me to another time of my life, which might not have been the past.. absolute inception vibes
@AbdulBasit-lc7qt pretty much like a dejavu experience through scent. Couldn't pinpoint what time or memory exactly, but it felt very familiar. And the something was experimented with were magic mushrooms( psilocybin) way back in the day
So if this is a winter or night fragrance, what would you suggest for summer? I’m partial to an Oud fragrance. I just like it. In fact I think most things I like you’d say are winter/evening fragrance. Suggestions welcome 😊
hey, I just got MFK Rose L'Homme and its great to my nose. I'd also recommend Sedley from PDM. Oud really is better for colder and night settings, I don't think its a well done scent for the summer or hot weather. Too dark.
Strong and very well blended. However , I dislike it greatly after about an hour. It's relentless and I had to scrub this one off. Tried it many times and I just can't get into it .
I have this one and TF Oud Wood. I find them totally different, Oud Wood is "fresher", but agree about the similar kind of oud in both. Both of them and Aventus, are my favourites!!
Great review! Really appreciate the “Total Recall” portion of this video. SPOT ON! When I first tried this one, it gave me 540 vibes. Six months later, they are different enough to justify having both in your collection. ❤️🔥Amazing Review.
Ok let’s not fool about. Yes bkr and ofg smell slightly different but the opening to the average nose they smell EXACTLY the same. The dry downs go in different directions.
Glad that you finally reviewed this! Excellent scent! I do agree that the price is in the high range, but I guess that contributes a lot to the hype :)
Hyped BUT hype well deserved - if u buy this for the Oud itself you are getting Ripped, BUT this is a f-ing masterpiece. The best out of all the initios I will re-up the second i feel my bottle getting light
Umm the companies (initio and perfumes de Marley were both sold off to another company, including the recipes)- now the brother and sister that sold it off told them that they would only sell under the condition that the formulas would never be changed, but obviously the company that bought off the brands does what every company like that does (waters them down and downgrades the quality of the ingredients.... And at that point, it's almost sad to say that it would be better to just get lattafas knockoff than to buy a 400 bottle of perfume that was watered down.
I received a 1mL vial in the mail today. After applying the whole thing, I just sat there, stunned. Had I just discovered the PERFECT fragrance?

Great review. You need to review Paris Corner’s Mystery of Oud Greatness. This is an exact clone and price is ridiculously cheap.
I tried this when it first came out and I loved the way it smells but I felt like I couldn't pull it off. I found it way to manly (is that weird).
This remind me of savage elixir but better. Thinking about buying. But it's expensive
I’ve been seeing this cologne named on the elixir comments people saying it smells like elixir is that true
Glad that you finally reviewed this! Excellent scent! I do agree that the price is in the high range, but I guess that contributes a lot to the hype :)
This does not last long for me, its gone after 1-2 hours Maximum,love the scent but should stay longer.. almost sprayd half the bottle in like a month
Hyped BUT hype well deserved - if u buy this for the Oud itself you are getting Ripped, BUT this is a f-ing masterpiece. The best out of all the initios I will re-up the second i feel my bottle getting light
fell for the hype. LOL! No way is this the best Initio fragrance.
I love this fragrance
If you want a version of Oud for Greatness, but really great, buy Thomas Kosmala Bukhoor, this is more powerful than OFG......
Has anyone noticed that the packaging has changed? I ordered directly from INITIO and there is no velvet around where the bottle is supported.
Yeah I noticed. What do you think of performance so far? My newer batch seems to be worse
They must have watered it down. No way is the performance the same. Short projection and short longevity.
Umm the companies (initio and perfumes de Marley were both sold off to another company, including the recipes)- now the brother and sister that sold it off told them that they would only sell under the condition that the formulas would never be changed, but obviously the company that bought off the brands does what every company like that does (waters them down and downgrades the quality of the ingredients.... And at that point, it's almost sad to say that it would be better to just get lattafas knockoff than to buy a 400 bottle of perfume that was watered down.
I feared that would happen.....
I wanted just for the bottle alone
