The review
On paper, Royal Oud is a strong bet if you want Royal Oud for less.
Palermo Perfumes 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 $23 it costs 96% less than Royal Oud.
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 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
The original opens on pink pepper, lemon and sicilian bergamot, turns to cedar, angelica and galbanum, and settles into sandalwood, agarwood (oud) and musk. That is the brief Royal Oud is working from.
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.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
