Scentonym Analysis
Our objective metric for performance per dollar.
The Short-Lived King
** The Scent Profile **
Currently the most popular clone of *Oud Wood*. It nails the medicinal, clean agarwood opening that makes the original famous. It has that signature "band-aid" note (in a good way) mixed with rosewood and cardamom. The difference is in the texture; Woody Oud feels thinner and more alcoholic in the first 30 seconds. Once settled, it offers that sophisticated, CEO-vibes scent profile perfectly.
** Performance Reality Check **
Here's the catch: it vanishes. Just like the modern batches of Tom Ford Oud Wood, this clone struggles to last past 4 hours. You are buying the scent profile, not the performance.
** The Verdict **
Keep a decant in your pocket. It smells like a million bucks for 3 hours, then it's a skin scent. Still, at this price, you can afford to respray 4 times a day.
