“This was a blind buy, I’ve never smelled Oud for Greatness so can’t give comparison. If you like oud fragrances, get this. The bottle and packaging are fantastic quality, it’s a thick boi. Heavy and solid, gorgeous attention to detail and packaging design. The fragrance is definitely masculine but with an underlying sweetness that lures you in. It’s distinct but not so loud that it becomes irritating over time. It smells slightly different on my partner and I. On him it’s warm, spicy but gentle musk. On me it’s a little sweeter and lighter on dry down. Both of us were pleasantly surprised and this is his new signature scent. It’s reminiscent of sweet hookah smoke tangled in your hair, wrapped in a leather jacket on a autumn night in in the city. This is definitely a evening/date night/fall & winter fragrance. I would say it’s too rich for an office or school setting and would trigger anyone with fragrance sensitivities. If you dislike richly spiced, intense oud and complex musk fragrances then this is not the one for you.”
