Nepal Aoud

“I have the new version (probably reformulated) with the orange bottle and gold sprayer. In my opinion, it's a diluted Black Aoud, with the rose far behind. The leather is not there, just amber, saffron and of course the synthetic Oud. Good longevity 8h+ but medium to discreet sillage / projection. In no case does it project as black aoud, let's say a maximum of 20% of what black aoud can.Overall OK, but I was just expecting to something more, with far better projection. In this case I say it's a good discreet office scent.”

“This is a very typical Gulf-Arab scent, in the best way.It reminds me of the scents they pump out of the air vents in the malls of the UAE.Amber, Rose, slightly sour Oudh..hints of funky-sweet musk, nutmeg and saffron (not leather).This is the most classic Arabian smell in their line imo.Very beautiful but not every-day IMO.If you like these types of scents, it's worth a blind-buy. You will feel like you've smelled it before.Excellent longevity and projection too, of course.”

“Ok so this is my first from this house and of all of the new perfumes I have I like this one the best. The real issue is longevity. I have to really search for it on my skin and it's only been an hour. Sillage, if there is any, is very small. The scent is so lovely though. Not overly sweet, not totally southwest Asia market, complex without being snooty. The oud is subtle to me but not chemical. It leans toward cedar.I would only give it a 6/10 despite smelling so good because it just doesn't project or last.”
