Is this considered a unisex fragrance?+−
Yes, it is designed for both men and women. The combination of earthy woods and dark roses sits right in the middle of the spectrum, appealing to anyone who enjoys traditional Middle Eastern-style perfumery.
How long does the scent actually last?+−
It is known for having massive staying power. On skin, it typically lasts through a full day and evening, while on clothing, the woody and resinous base notes can remain detectable for several days or even weeks.
When is the best time to wear this?+−
This fragrance is most effective in the fall and winter. The density of the balsams and oud can feel overwhelming in high heat, so it is generally reserved for cooler temperatures and evening occasions.
How does the oud note behave in this composition?+−
The oud in L'Autre Ôud leans toward the medicinal and woody side rather than being excessively "barnyard" or animalic. It is balanced by the sweetness of the Turkish rose and the smoky, balsamic textures of myrrh.
