The review

Worth a try. That is where Oud lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Oud.

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

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Palermo Perfumes 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: saffron and elemi up top, agarwood (oud) and patchouli in the middle, cedar and woody notes underneath — the shape of Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud.

Top

  • saffron
  • elemi

Heart

  • agarwood (oud)
  • patchouli

Base

  • cedar
  • woody notes
Smooth saffron-laced agarwood on cedar and patchouli — polished, never harsh.

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