  1. Not bad, but I bought it blind and imagined it to be far more challenging and animalic than it turned out. Ultimately, it’s a very wearable scent for almost any occasion. What struck me first was the packaging: spectacular box and bottle. The bottle is heavy, made of opaque glass containing a liquid that resembles aged bourbon, and the cap recalls Xerjoff with its elegant pom-pom. As for the fragrance, I expected an animalic oud given the name ‘Death by Oud’, but it’s a soft oud with medicinal hints, not the star. The opening is fruity and citrusy with grapefruit, a touch of lavender, and an undeclared coconut that transitions into spices and amber, with tobacco and a hint of leather. As it dries down, the oud emerges, medicinal and even mentholated. It’s a good perfume with a high oil concentration that evolves beautifully on the skin, yet it’s neither challenging nor difficult. If you’re looking for an animalic or stable-style oud, this isn’t for you.
