How it Smells
Supremacy in Oud aims for Oud for Greatness, and it lands pretty darn close. The opening blasts a spicy saffron and nutmeg combo, with just a whisper of lavender smoothing the edges. It's not quite as refined as the Initio, a little sharper, maybe 95% there. The heart is pure oud, thankfully not the barnyard kind, but a smooth, woody, slightly medicinal oud. The base is a warm hug of patchouli and musk, providing a solid foundation. The drydown is where it deviates slightly; it becomes a touch more musky and less oud-focused than the OG.
Bottom Line
If you want that Oud for Greatness vibe without the Great Depression in your wallet, Supremacy in Oud is a great option. It’s not a 1:1 copy, but it captures the essence. If you need absolute perfection and have cash to burn, go for the Initio. But for everyday wear? Supremacy in Oud brings that luxurious scent profile . I'd reach for this for evenings out and cooler days.
Wear time & Sillage
This stuff lasts. I get a solid 7-8 hours on my skin, and it projects well for the first 2-3. You'll definitely leave a scent trail. It’s not nuclear, but people will notice you. On clothes? Easily lasts overnight.
