The review
Strong contender. That is where Royal Oud lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Royal Oud.
Oil Perfumery sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Royal Oud's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $125 per 100ml it costs 79% less than Royal Oud — the 12th cheapest of 12 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Oil Perfumery 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
What it is chasing: pink pepper, lemon and sicilian bergamot up top, cedar, angelica and galbanum in the middle, sandalwood, agarwood (oud) and musk underneath — the shape of Creed Royal Oud.
Top
- pink pepper
- lemon
- sicilian bergamot
Heart
- cedar
