The review
British Wood scores 7.6 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Aoud.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Aoud's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
At $83 per 100ml it costs 84% less than Aoud — the 2nd cheapest of 2 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 Perfume Parlour 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
Roja Parfums Aoud is saffron, bergamot and lemon at first, rose, jasmine and geranium at its heart and oud, sandalwood and amber at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- saffron
- bergamot
- lemon
Heart
- rose
- jasmine
- geranium
Base
- oud
- sandalwood
- amber
Saffron and rose over deep agarwood, an elegant Western take on oud.
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 3 twins of Roja Parfums Aoud we can price, British Wood is number 2 on price per 100ml.
- 01 The Dupe Spot AOUD by ROJA #264 (CLEARANCE) $26/100ml
