The review

Intense Black scores 5.2 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Royal Oud.

Lomani lists 3 of the 9 notes in Royal Oud's pyramid — pink pepper, lemon and sicilian bergamot. What it does not list: cedar, angelica, galbanum and sandalwood.

Strength: eau de toilette — lighter than most originals.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Lomani 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

Creed Royal Oud is pink pepper, lemon and sicilian bergamot at first, cedar, angelica and galbanum at its heart and sandalwood, agarwood (oud) and musk at the end. Lomani set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • pink pepper
  • lemon
  • sicilian bergamot

Heart

  • cedar
  • angelica
  • galbanum

Base

  • sandalwood
  • agarwood (oud)
  • musk
For the one who commands the boardroom with restraint, wearing a dry, peppery, refined oud built on clean cedar and sandalwood.
