The review

Shaghaf Oud Aswad Swiss Arabian scores 6.0 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Black Aoud.

Dupes.se sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Black Aoud's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $63 per 100ml it costs 65% less than Black Aoud — the 2nd cheapest of 3 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 Dupes.se 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

Montale Black Aoud is mandarin orange and rose at first, rose, oud and patchouli at its heart and labdanum, musk and agarwood at the end. Dupes.se set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • mandarin orange
  • rose

Heart

  • rose
  • oud
  • patchouli

Base

  • labdanum
  • musk
  • agarwood
For the one who wants a dramatic, animalic rose-and-oud with old-leather labdanum, an accessible gateway into dark Middle-Eastern oud fragrances.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 7 twins of Montale Black Aoud we can price, Shaghaf Oud Aswad Swiss Arabian is number 2 on price per 100ml.
