First Review: Creed Royal Oud

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Probably should have picked a less complicated fragrance for my first attempt but I will give it a go. Today I will be reviewing:

I am not the best at notes so bear with me. I was really surprised by how wearable and so what "light" this OUD was (a very light oud). The top to me is very light and I get the bergamont up front with a pepperish smell toward the end of the top notes (pink pepper I am assuming). I really only have a citrus like smell for about 30 minutes which i am assuming is Calabrian lemon. After about 2 hours I get cedar, cedar, cedar.. but it's not the cedar shavings smell it is very warm and inviting without being "stuffy." For me this last several hours. Before melting down into a very mellow sandalwood type blend. I am not very familiar with the Regal Indian Oud but it seems to balance with the sandalwood and really transform it into a smooth almost silky type fragrance. I really get very little musk out of this at all. Let me know what you think of Royal Oud and my review.

Not the best oud-prominent fragrance IMO but I like it and glad I have it in my collection. Your review was fine.

Thanks! Trying to get a little better describing notes.
