The review
On paper, Crystal Wood is a strong bet if you want Pure Oud for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Pure Oud's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $89 per 100ml it costs 60% less than Pure Oud — the 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
The original opens on saffron and coriander, turns to oud and rose, and settles into labdanum, musk and sandalwood. That is the brief Crystal Wood is working from.
Top
- saffron
- coriander
Heart
- oud
- rose
Base
- labdanum
- musk
- sandalwood
Saffron-lit oud over labdanum, dense and resinous with no attempt at politeness.
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 By Kilian Pure Oud we can price, Crystal Wood is number 2 on price per 100ml.
- 01 Perfume Parlour Crystal Wood For Women $89/100ml
- 02 Perfume Parlour Crystal Wood $89/100ml
- 03 Palermo Perfumes Pure Oud $22.75
