Versace Oud Noir Eau de Parfum

Product Information

Shelf life is easily 10h and because of the oily consistency you can even enjoy it after a shower ;). Over the years, as I gradually developed into a true perfume enthusiast, I inevitably came across the ingredient "Oud", which can be found at least once in almost every perfume portfolio of every perfume-producing brand today More and more I was concerned with that ingredient that is loved by some and hated by others; to me it seemed worthy of a glance or a snoop. As a result, I didn't have the "courage" to buy a (designer) fragrance with "Oud" in its name, and certainly not an expensive one from any niche perfumer. It has great projection and as the bitterness starts to subside you will begin to get a stronger leathery scent with some fruitiness and a very smooth oud which is neither medicinal nor skanky at all. It really helps boost the projection which will be great for the time of year we are in.

It doesn’t last long on many people, but it does on me. The saffron and OUD mix quite well. Don’t expect strong projection, people will smell you for sure that you know. It’s a complement getter big time but not outdoors or in big crowds, In my opinion a very successful, woody and smoky oriental, in which the sweet incense interacts very well with the oud - here suitable for the masses - and thanks to the saffron also gets a certain spice. Oud Noir has similarities with Haltane from Parfums De Marly, but both are different enough that owing one doesn’t make the other redundant. I would say Oud Noir in its early stages is a deeper darker scent which does end up nice and sweet like Haltane in the dry down What I would say is that they have moments where they meet up with one another like twins on the same path but then verge off and do their own things. If you like Haltane you will love this IMO.It’s one of those colognes that women seem to love and compliment, likely because it steps away from male cologne stereotypes. Oud Satin Mood is the perfect long-lasting fragrance for sultry winter date nights. Indeed, it is claimed that when EdP changed to perfume, fragrances were reformulated, oud oil was no longer used & they had a much worse performance.

ONI begins with cardamom & medicated oud, which is very oily and continues until the end. In the middle course saffron and wood are added; drydown in amber-vanilla.Here's a selection of the very best oud fragrances for men available right now.
