The review
Exotic scores 6.9 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Oud Wood.
AromaPassions sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Oud Wood's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $69 per 100ml it costs 89% less than Oud Wood — the 15th cheapest of 26 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength AromaPassions publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Tom Ford Oud Wood is rosewood, cardamom and pepper at first, oud, sandalwood and vetiver at its heart and tonka, vanilla and amber at the end. AromaPassions set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- rosewood
- cardamom
- pepper
Heart
- oud
- sandalwood
- vetiver
Base
- tonka
- vanilla
- amber
For your first oud, and your last. Rosewood and cardamom soften smoky agarwood and vanilla — refined, creamy, effortlessly upscale.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
