The top note is just way too synthetic for me, smells like rubber, where as the OG has this beautiful opening.
The dry down hits it almost identical to the OG though so a solid 4/5 for me, nice job !
Hi Nath
Oud Wood - the perfect autumn/winter fragrance?
Try Oud Wood again when your nose is not affected by other fragrances and you may find that the top note is not as synthetic as you first thought.
4/5 - we will settle for that!
Thanks for leaving your review.

I'd wear this over the original. I was instantly surprised by the quality and how close it gets to the classic scent. It holds the initial notes longer through the dry down without being too heavy or synthetic, which you tend to get with other, more expensive takes on the scent profile. The atomiser also projects really well!
Where the original lasts around 2 hours for me, one spray on my wrist was projecting for at least double the time. I can't fault it and feel like I've discovered a hidden gem. I bought the 15ml but will be buying the 50ml while I can.
I like Oud and you can smell Oud in the middle notes - not overpowering - just enough. I wish now that I had bought the 50ml version. The scent stayed on my skin at least seven hours and I didn't use too much perfume.
Thanks for your review GM, we still have 50ml in stock...
We're glad you like Oud Wood, it's one of my favourites.
Really dark woody oud. I personally prefer it to the TF original. Another banger💪💪
I received a free sample of Oud Wood with another purchase from Pocket Scents. I left it a few weeks before trying it and loved the fragrance straight away. The Oud is not overwhelming and allows the other notes to shine through. It lasts a long time, a couple of sprays is enough for the day. I am pretty sure this will become my favourite fragrance and will definitely buy a bottle when I am next ready to order from PS.
