Tauer L'Oudh Eau de Parfum

If you know Andy Tauer’s approach then you would know that he isn’t a perfumer who would jump on the oud wagon like every other luxury brand, because he has to have an oud one in his range! He pretty much avoids the way oud synthetics are made. His Oud is the real deal from a Laos. The reason why the fragrance is much more expensive than the rest of Tauer fragrances is because Andy did not compromise on the oud bag thanks heaven for that decision. This is a smoky, leathery take on oud that highlights the true and the very darkness of the oud without kicking you in the face. It’s not only wearable, but addictive, rich and very sexy. I feel that the opening is inky, smokey with unsweetened leather notes. It will develop into a smooth texture, with an oily or buttery finish over the course of the day. This makes it into my top 3 fragrances of all time. And I have had quite a few in my life time.
