Vanille Aoud

Vanille Aoud is a gorgeous blend of vanilla and aoud. The scent showcases the sophisticated, noble and elegant qualities of an aoud and sensual and seductive vanilla. The scent is luxurious, exclusive and classy. What I find amazing about this scent is how these two notes are played so well together. The aoud gives vanilla woody and elegant touch and vanilla polishes aoud with its silky and smooth touch. This beautiful union of aoud and vanilla are a match made in heaven. It is like there were meant for each other and they live in perfect harmony. The composition seems to be simple but yet it is incredibly rich and voluptuous. The scent is so easy and pleasant to wear. My husband cannot stand most aoud fragrances that I have tried but he loves this one on me. If you want to experience aoud but afraid of its wild and dark character then this lovely gourmand fragrance will be a great start. It is a high quality composition where you still get the slight darkness of an aoud but it will not kill you with its overpowering presence. It is definitely full bottle worthy for me. 9/10

Well...I have no words, this is simply amazing, it opens with mouthwatering caramel+plum combo with loads of vanilla, this might be heady for some, but the oud, oh, it balances here perfectly. It is noticeable all the time, but never too much, so this might be a winner even for those who usually don't enjoy oud too much. I find this to be AMAZING, it's delightful, it is very elegant and very unique, nothing I've tried before has been anything like this. Perfect scent for elegant ladies with a little black dress and smoky eyes.

molto buono questo accordo che si apre con una vaniglia caramellata mista a prugna e limone, in modo da non darne un'impressione troppo gourmand ma, al contrario, assai equilibrata. questa fase evolve poi su una vaniglia più tropicale, grazie all'ylang ylang che ne restituisce quasi una nota di cocco. infine arriva l'oud che conferisce al tutto la giusta asprezza legnosa. notevole.

Nice and juicy in the beginning, with something that reminds me of pineapple and coconut accompanying a waft of oud in the background. Soon the oud pretty much leaves the party, and I smell a lot of realistic caramel, tendrils of smoke coming from a freshly baked pie crust, and the bark of vanilla pods. I thought this perfume smelled familiar. Then I realized that on my skin, Vanille Aoud dries down to smell identical to SL Une Bois Vanille. Une Bois Vanille disappears from my skin in about a half hour, but Vanille Aoud stays on for about 3-4.

This opens with a nice, pronounced rubbery-inky aoud note and then transitions quickly to what I perceive as a "tropical vanilla" scent. Vanillic, slightly floral with a coconut like note. The aoud disappeared completely in the dry down for me leaving something akin to a high-end tanning oil type scent. While its not full bottle worthy for my tastes, my husband thought it smelled "delicious!" Thanks to Christinasegal123 for the chance to try this out! <3
