Aigner N°1 Oud

Aigner Oud is all about a lighter, dress-up oud--along the lines of Creed Royal Oud--that is warmly spiced with a nice touch of rose and floral notes rounding out the composition. I immediately liked this fragrance. The oud is slight medicinal abut not overpowering to folks who don't like the Montale/Mancera type of oud fragrances. It is as though you are driving a bottle of Montale Aoud and decide to take your foot off the gas pedal and go one-quarter throttle down the road. It's a very nice and elegant oud fragrance interpretation that is safe for the office, and softly sensual in the drydown for more intimate settings. I feel this fragrance is completely gender neutral. The cinnamon, hazelnut, coriander and cloves give N°1 Oud a nice spiciness from top-to-bottom and the leather shows itself a bit during the drydown. Longevity and projection are excellent. This fragrance has a familiar vibe to it--especially the drydown-- just can't place any similar fragrances at this time. Oud lovers will probably like or love this one. Conversely, people who don't like oud (this is not a sweet, fruity or gourmand oud) may not like it during the first 2-4 hours, however N°1 stays within an arms length and later becomes an intimate scent during the drydown. This scent calms down an hour after the opening and sits much closer to the skin; it's not a skin scent but it projects moderately for the most part. N°1 is just a touch on the peppery side...I would not be surprised to learn there was pink pepper in this fragrance as a top note. The oud combined with cloves and other spices give N°1 a slight sourness and sweetness at at the same time, which is not atypical of oud fragrances. I had this experience from about 45- minutes to 2-hours after application. Initially, it seemed like honey or vanilla could have smoothed this one out a bit, but I am so glad it wasn't added since I have enough vanilla oud fragrances. IMO, this fragrance will strike a very slight sour accord if you wear it in temps above 80 (like I did during the Summer) or a slightly sweet accord if you were to wear it in cooler temps. Not recommended for use in warmer weather. N°1 projects moderately for about 4-hours and then slowly transitions to a close-to-the-skin scent at around the 6-hour mark. However, this fragrance continues to linger pleasantly on my skin for up to 14-hours. Overall, I would say it is long-lasting but not beast mode longevity because it sits pretty close to the skin after 6-hours...and is faint by 10. My impression is that it projects heavy for the first 1-2 hours, moderately for the next 2-3 hours and softly thereafter; overall moderate projection although I may revise my vote when I get to wear this in public when the fall arrives. Additionally, moderate projection is fine with me since I was looking for a safe, under-control, oud fragrance. The drydown is a touch powdery but I barely detect it and it's just the right amount. It's also woody/musky, which I will attribute to the cashmeran. To me, cashmeran is an odd note since it can't make-up its mind if it's woody or musky or whatever. 3 hours and 45-minutes later and it smells the same...lightly spiced oud, woody-muskiness and a bit of light leather. Moreover, the drydown after the 5-hour mark was quite nice..not so much oudy as it was wood-leather-musk. Moreover, there was a barelythere sweetness and spiciness to this fragrance--really nice and a bit intimate--that smelled familiar. Where have I smelled this drydown before? I'm scratching my head and my arse simultaneously wondering the answer to my question. Besides a touch of muskiness, I was surprised the drydown also had a light amber feel to it. Very odd! Regardless, it had transitioned into a very nice cuddle scent IMO. Oh, the leather is very light (not an in-your-face animalic type leather) so it may be imperceptible to many - it's just part of the blend. Overall, I really enjoy this fragrance. To me, it's great safe oud to wear into the office, and then snuggle on the sofa after work. Right now I'm teetering between like and love. C'est la vie.

#1141 in my "Tour de Fragrance" Very, very oriental, but with a very clean, Western agarwood. So not too oriental for business wear. Lot in common with Memo Paris "Iberian Leather" and Swiss Arabian's "Shaghaf Oud Aswad". If you already have those, this gives you nothing new in terms of notes. But, if you have Iberian Leather and it runs out, save some cash and get this instead for half the cost. The Swiss Arabian is only 25% of the Memo Paris price, but I think most of you will much prefer this to the Shaghaf as it's much more leathery. Good longevity and projection. Successful blind buy for me! Unfortunately the other scents from this "No.1" line are EDTs, so not for me. But I'm going to hunt down the "Initial" scents next. Car pool, elevator, small office safe, and I think fine for a romantic encounter. Cool weather wear for me.

Well, guys, seriously... this is absolutely amazing juice. I don't understand why the fragrance community is not hyping it up. Totally underrated! It is really very good start for those who want to experience the oud note - it is not that sharp oud found in many (cheap) fragrances, rather it is very smooth, very soft oud. I can guess that the saffron plays a big role in the final result. I consider this fragrance a Tom Ford Private Blend Collection quality for much more reasonable price. Don't miss this beauty. I am just saying. :) @daniel.marinov.79: the projection and longevity will be heavily dependent upon your skin but if you spray it on your clothes, it will last for days.

I tested it yesterday in Douglas. Incredible fragrance! Very warm and sensual. The oud and incense remind nice and familiar combination of already M7 and Ferrari Essence Oud. I recommend this one to every oud lovers!

Can any of you gents please share a web that is selling this perfume .The official website does not seem to sale it Thanks..

Well rounded perfume and of high quality niche like perfumes. Great job Aigner.

For this price, one of the best, I love this perfume My vote 9/10

Smells like Dr pepper with a bit of incense. Really like it. 9/10

Bought this for my hubby and he was very pleased with this fragrance. The oud in this is the mentholish type of oud. The leather is prominent but it's a soft luxorious type of leather. The rose is there but faint. I have Swiss Arabian Dehn El Oud Mubarak and it's a wonderful perfume oil that also has this mentholish oud in it. I would say this Aigner perfume and the other one mentioned are quite close, not clone like close, but they are indeed in the same family. Longevity is decent, a couple of hours with a nice and descret scent trail. This is a great fragrance for a great price and as somebody wrote, a western- friendly type of oud.

The scent of this eau de parfum is indeed more rosy than oudy, but I really love this way. This perfume describes me as a warm, soft, caring, and gentle person. Got compliments with this one even though I was only had it for a test in a mall. Others also describe this one as a rich-man scent. Funny, though, as Aigner No. 1 line are pocket-friendly, really. It is similar to Ferrari Essence Oud, but Ferrari got theirs more powerful in terms of sillage, and possibly in the longevity as it can even stay for 5 days when applied to fabrics. All in all, this one is a decent juice.

I have to disagree with the folks that compare it to 24 Platinum. Platinum is a beast mode type of scent while this is more discreet and easy to wear. This one has more spices than rose so I would compare it to Polo Supreme Oud. The whole cinnamon and nutmeg composition makes up the dry down with a very light out and leather and woods. The scent itself gets a 10 but the performance leaves a lot to be desired. This would make a good day to day oud scent or a good date scent as it's sillage stays close to the skin.

@trinity13... This obviously has no citrus and i prefer this over ADP Oud. It starts off sweetish from the rose, oud and saffron and is backed up by the woods. there is a spiciness from the cloves,cinnamon and nutmeg which make out for a great sweetish cinammon smell on the dry down. A great safe oud for people just starting out with the note! i do recommend it overall! Edit: As Jim has stated the dry down is familiar and i also cannot place where i know it from!

90% sweet, 10% woody. Warm indeed but not truly oud. It, undeniably, has a Middle Eastern vibe but the oud is unnoticeable. It's mainly rose & cinnamon. I stare at the notes as I bury my nose in the testing strip & I'm baffled. I can't detect the oud at all. Unisex, but leans toward feminine more due to its sweetness. A beautiful, safe smell but don't come here if you're looking for "Oud".

i have to agree with those who said that Oud in this rather inferior.. i detect strong rose in the opening, but don't get me wrong, it's still in the light level.. very smooth and sweet.. reminds me a lot to Scent Story 24 Platinum.. though i have to say that 24 is better, slightly.. but again, as everybody has said that with this price, can't go wrong..

This opens with a very strong medicinal smell which i think could be from the oud or saffron but it doesn't stay for long, after a few minutes rose pushes forward with leather in the background and stays pretty much the same for the entirety of its life. It has very good lasting power 4-5 sprays could get you through the day.

This was a bit different than i had expected, it smells very oily, and it doesnt project that well, very close to the skin, it reminds me more of a good smell than a fragrance, kinda like a massage oil, and i think its a bit feminin, but overall it has a very luxurious feel, at the price its worth checking out.

Fahrenheit Absolute....This is what i thought of when i wore Fahrenheit Absolute today. It took me an age to think of what i was smelling. Then it dawned on me. It's not identical by any means, it just really brings me there at certain moments.

This is Oud for people who're scared of oud. Office oud or professional oud are things that come to my mind when I'm wearing this.

There is any oud in this, but fragrance is truly nice and calming. And is available for a good price.
