Oud

Tried it today. I dont think there is any actual real oud in it, but it has that clean, somewhat spicy, western, cold, medicinal, synthetic oud that in a way reminds me of the oud in Tom Fords - Oud Wood. The "reminds me of" section must be people just looking up "oud" and saying this smells alike. Its not true at all. I have most of the frags from the list and I can 100% say that is not true. However, It is a nice, clean kind of oud like smell... I like it. I might actually go buy it, especially that they make lotions, candles, and soaps with that scent. Price isn't bad either. Edit: I got it, and got to expirence with a bit more.. It is light and airy and can be worn in the hotter weather without being to heavy and cloying, good for layering as well. I would not say this is a cold weather only wear at all. Its a EdT and does not have that umph you need for winter frags (that been said most buyers and raters of this are probably brazilians and considering winter in brazil is ~28C, I get it) This is more of a layering frag, as by itself it does not last that long. I get about a hour to 2 before it becomes skin scent. I do really like the scent it leaves on the skin though -- super clean and airy. It's light and unisex even, when my wife sprayed it on, it smelled almost floral, it had soapyness and sweetness to it. Maybe its just my perception since it was on my wife, but on me I get more of the cold and spicy aspect of it. If you looking for another brazilian fragrance to layer it with (assuming most costumers of this would be brazilian) try laying it with "the blend" by O Boticário, for some reason they work amazing together and amplify one another.

I’m a big fan of this scent. It’s super elegant and easy to wear anywhere, plus I ise it to sleep so smooth it is, which is a huge plus. My only gripe is that the oud is really faint, almost like it’s not even there. As an oud lover who usually goes for that deep, smoky, animalic vibe, I was a little surprised by how little agarwood actually shows up. It feels more like a tiny hint than a true oud fragrance. Instead, the sandalwood and cardamom really steal the show. The sandalwood is creamy and soft, almost like a "your skin but better" scent, while the cardamom gives it a bright, fresh-spiced kick. That mix of spice and wood is honestly addictive and keeps the fragrance feeling polished instead of heavy. Because the oud isn't intense, this is way more wearable and crowd-pleasing than most oud perfumes. It lasts a long time but stays polite, so it’s perfect for the office or a night out. It’s actually unique because it completely avoids the heavy intensity I was expecting. Overall, it’s a really nice, modern woody scent that I find myself grabbing all the time. I definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something classy rather than raw power. Edit: I love this thing, I will buy as many litres as I can of that.

This is the most subtle and clean smelling oud fragrance I have smelt. Despite it being a eau de cologne formulation, I still get hints of it 5-6 hours after my initial spray. The oud is not as strong as you would expect from a oud oil or Arabian oud fragrance, it is just right to layer over a warm fragrance. I enjoy layering this scent with Kayali invite only amber. It is well worth a try, I highly recommend this scent for those who love oud but cannot take the strong complex ouds typically associated with the scent family. If you would like to try this in store I highly recommend the store in Paris, Francs Bourgeois - Their store is stunning :)

This eau de cologne is both fresh and sophisticated with a surprising longevity. The opening is a refreshing burst of cardamom and patchouli that evolves beautifully on the skin revealing warm, woody notes of oud and sandalwood. The hint of absinthe makes it clean and invigorating yet at the same time, complex. I can see how it may also work for layering, though I prefer to wear ir on its own for how elegant and clean this fragrance is. A few sprays after a refreshing shower make for a heavenly bedtime ritual. Another masterpiece by Granado.

For me this cologne is the best of granado cologne line, is fresh, but not in a lime way, is woody but confortable, some people will sent a spicy vibe too, i don' get it my self. I used as a post shower body splash, mainly before sleep, after 3-4h evolute to a second skin, i also used for layering with more fruty edp, i will defenaly buy this again
