“I’m not the biggest fan of oud and I especially dislike rose, so I was pretty positive that I wouldn’t like this, but I decided to give it a shot regardless. The rose and the oud are just way too much for me. If you like both of those notes, you’ll probably like this, but it unfortunately reminds me of an old lady. It has strong sillage and lasts all day. Saw that this was compared to SDJ ‘59 but I highly disagree. SDJ ‘59 is a powdery and lightly floral vanilla with no oud or rose.”
“Super intense opening with a strong powdery rose. A scent that I can only describe as elderly, generic, strong bar soap, think a white bar of body soap. It dries down to a pretty strong oud, but is still powdery overall. Have smelled the original, and they are both so obnoxious I can't stand to tell them apart.”
“Very rose/powder forward. Take this as you will but it reminded of my 97 year old great-grandma. It is incredibly strong and has a lot of longevity. If I liked this scent that would be great but I couldn’t stand it. Someone asked what smelled bad while passing my doorway, it was me (thanks to this perfume). It’s definitely NOT a compliment getter. After a few hours wearing it I had to shower because I couldn’t stand the scent any longer.”
