My father is a fan of them, and I also like the scent. It smells expensive. I have already ordered him the third bottle. Of course, it may not appeal to everyone because it has a rather unconventional smell, but the longevity is fantastic.
The product is really bad.
I didn't understand it right away. If you can withstand a thermonuclear blast, then the base pleasantly surprises with raspberry, rose, and vanilla, and the oud remains close to the skin. For me, the scent is purely for the cold season. In warm weather, it suffocates, even in the base. It is long-lasting and has a trail. I apply no more than 2 sprays. There was a time when I wanted to get rid of it, but now I am satisfied. It combines the brutality of oud and the subtle powdery sweetness at the same time.
What endurance are you talking about? It smells like gasoline and plastic, what roses, what sillage, it reeks of synthetics, and it's a good thing it doesn't last long. I don't recommend it, very disappointed.
If you were to combine the majority of frankincense, a smaller amount of amber, musk, and pour liquid caramel over it all, then thoroughly mix it with crushed patchouli, and finally place a rose "Eiffel Tower" on top of this concoction (because it has a very strong scent), you would get a fragrance that is quite powerful and long-lasting, like the EDP Frank Oliver Oud Touch. It has carved out its place in the world of perfumes, somewhere between Tom Ford (in a good way) and black shoe cream like "Gutalin." The scent is so strong that flies drop dead, and its sillage reaches 10 meters in calm weather. The subtle scent gives the impression of an expensive perfume, like TF Black Orchid. With 100 ml, it will last a lifetime. It is definitely masculine, with the sweetness of rose and caramel easily noticeable. The dominant bitterness comes from indoor plants that emit a stylish bitter scent only when touched. All of this is surrounded by a subtle presence of wood. The name itself reflects the contents of the bottle. Not for the younger crowd, but rather for those who enjoy strong scents. It may not be luxury, but it is a rather interesting scent that deserves its place in the world of perfumery.
This fragrance is sophisticated, heavy, and enveloping with warmth, mystery, and a certain history. Its longevity is phenomenal, ensuring that you will definitely not go unnoticed.
However, it is not advisable to evaluate this fragrance based on the first few minutes after application; it needs time to settle on your skin.
If you are accustomed to fresh, marine, or citrus scents, this is not for you at all.
It is best to wear it during cooler times. This fragrance is for men over 30, or even 40, those rugged individuals with passionate eyes and a hint of Casanova, dressed in expensive suits and wearing nice watches.
I really liked it, sometimes I even wear it myself, although I bought it for my husband.
I bought it without testing it first. I was really afraid of wasting money, but I was very curious. In the end, the first spray, and oh my god! What is this nonsense? I immediately wanted to throw them away and forget about this smell! But alright, I applied literally one spray. 10 minutes passed, and you won't believe it... this fragrance allowed itself to be appreciated. Very unusual notes, mixed with fruits and wood, something completely unexpected and definitely not for 400 UAH. In my opinion, there is some similarity with Wonderwood by Comme Des Garçons. Excellent, luxurious fragrance. I recommend it!
The Uddhovich fragrance gave me a first impression of Arabic perfumes like Ajmal. It was quite sharp and daring, reminiscent of Arab oils and Dior Oud Ispahan (which, by the way, it is not similar to, despite what some people write on forums). It also paired well with Jo Malone Orris and Sandalwood, thanks to its sweetness and viscosity. After 10 days, it softened and became more refined, truly embodying the niche spirit. If you're afraid of its heaviness and sharpness, I recommend using it as a base and layering it with other fragrances. That way, you'll receive the most compliments. They say it's long-lasting, but I can't personally smell it on myself and it doesn't irritate me. However, others say it has a noticeable sillage. The fragrance lingers on clothes for a long time.
I strongly advise against buying this fragrance without a tester. Its longevity is exceptional. The scent is more suitable for individuals aged 45 and above. It belongs to the Bogart One Man Show series and is perfect for winter. It exudes a nostalgic 80s aroma.
This fragrance turned out to be very heavy for me, it's 100% masculine. It's like a typical Oud, and nothing more. I don't even know what to wear it with, maybe just one spray on a leather jacket and quickly go outside for some cool fresh air. I strongly advise against buying this fragrance without testing it, like I did, even though the price is quite affordable. I can't say that I find it completely unpleasant, but it is very heavy and rough.
I bought the product and it was delivered quickly. Thank you to the courier, Yuri, for a seamless delivery. However, I was disappointed to find out that the product was not from the EU. When I unpacked it at home, I noticed that there was no batch code on either the bottle or the box. How is this even possible? Has anyone else experienced this issue? Additionally, the label on the bottom of the bottle seemed low quality and poorly attached. In my opinion, this is definitely a counterfeit product. It's a shame as the amount of money I spent wasn't significant, but it's still a fact. Moreover, there were visible marks near the sprayer, as if the product was manufactured under makeshift conditions. I have attached a photo to support my claim. I don't need the website administration to tell me that this can happen. I am well aware of what an original product should look like.
This product has a pleasant scent and is extremely long-lasting. Definitely a 5 out of 5 rating.
Forgot to give it 5 stars. Definitely deserves five stars!
Soft, woody, warm, like amber in the sun, long-lasting. I really liked it.
I agree with the comments regarding the longevity, it is killer, even with just one spray and even after a shower. It has a great sillage. I bought it for myself. It's my first enjoyable fragrance. The opinions about it are mixed, so it's not a helpful assistant when it comes to choosing. It's on the heavy side, not everyone will like it. The first impression is more masculine than feminine. (Unisex) Definitely a fragrance for the cold season. I don't smell the caramel, roses, and orange. If I had to choose between Mugler Angel and Frank Oliver, I would go with Mugler. It sounds expensive, I will try to wear the fragrance for a while and give it time. Otherwise, I'll give it to my husband. The bottle looks presentable, packaged without any defects. The delivery was fast and the store's service is great.
The sound is very synthetic. It is sharp and angular.
Anyone who compares it to Dior Oud Ispahan has gone crazy. Completely off the mark.
Super.
The longevity is excellent, the scent is fresh, intense, yet at the same time thick.
What a disappointment! It's nothing but patchouli. There is no sweetness at all. I didn't like the scent. I would recommend trying it before buying.
A fragrance worthy of real men, not sweet sissies, but masculine guys! It is soft, woody, warm, as if amber is shining in the sun. It is long-lasting and suitable for both work and going out! It is also an excellent choice for a gift, with a beautiful and heavy bottle and a stylish design. I highly recommend it.
