“So, Oud for Glory, mine was manufactured in 04-2021 and the Expiration date is 04-2026 (5 years).Received my bottle today, so this cologne is approximately 11 months, 22 days old, it has lots of life, which is good. The packaging, the bottle, all really good quality. I never had Oud for Greatness, nor Oud for Glory before, but I must say that the oud in this cologne is there, but different from other oud colognes I have used. Lots of saffron in the opening for sure.UPDATE: At the opening, it smells great, its on the spicy side of things, the oud is light, but a good blend. The longevity was less than 2 hours, at two hours the cologne is reduces to a skin scent. I asked people at work if they could smell my cologne after 4 hours, and they said no. Its a great smelling fragrance, but the performance was disappointing, this would probably be a great cologne if it was available in an extrait de parfum (50% oil)”
“This is a straight up clone of OUD for Greatness - bottle and all. It’s so close that any normal person will not be able to tell the difference. It’s is not as long lasting nor as complex as the original, and the spillage is not as great. But, it’s 95% there. So if you want a niche fragrance at $30 versus $400, this is a no-brainer.This is a unisex fragrance that has OUD (ie: not for beginners who want a fresh or blue scent). Anyone will smell like an elegant boss with this on (spicy, woody OUD, etc.). It’s is long lasting that you will smell it at the end of the day - maybe not the next morning after you shower like you would with OUD for Greatness.This is a niche fragrance, which means this is probably not for everyday wear, and should be a formal evening, cooler type of weather application. May not be safe for an office fragrance.I’ve been told that Supremacy OUD by Afnan may be a better choice than this one if you want a clone closer to OUD for Greatness. That particular one is marketed toward men.And yes, I own both OUD for Greatness and OUD for Glory. Amethyst version is a little more feminine with a rose/lavender note.”
“Form the packaging to the bottle it looks amazing. If you like oud this is for you. I love oud it’s amazing strong and long lasting. My wife did not like it at first but after two days of me using it she started to love it.”
“Very good and persistent scent for a low price parfum, the quality is excellent and comparable, in some case superior, to higher price and most "commercial" ones.”
