The review

On paper, Regency Oud is a strong bet if you want Royal Oud for less.

Yom & Layl 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 $85 per 100ml it costs 86% less than Royal Oud — the 6th cheapest of 12 twins we can price.

Value9.6
Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Yom & Layl 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 Regency 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.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 13 twins of Creed Royal Oud we can price, Regency Oud is number 6 on price per 100ml.
