I have the reformulated OscuroD and it’s a crack of the oud-rose combo. It’s not for beginners if you lack experience, but it doesn’t smell like manure or anything strange. The opening is interesting, with a sweetness that softens the cypriol. As it settles, it improves: the sweetness and cypriol recede, giving prominence to a dry, characterful dark wood oud, accompanied by rose, musk, oakmoss, and a resinous touch that adds warmth. Overall, it’s a very good perfume with excellent longevity and projection, ideal for standing out in winter and autumn evenings. Over 12 hours on skin, it fills the room in the first four hours without being invasive.
I already have the reformulation of OscUroD, and it’s a gem of the oud-rose duo. It’s not for beginners if you’ve never tried oud, but it doesn’t smell like excrement or anything strange. The opening is curious, with a sweetness that calms the cypriol. As time passes, it improves: the sweetness and cypriol fade, leaving a dry, characterful oud and cedar, like dark wood, all mixed with rose, musk, oakmoss, and a warm resinous touch. In short, a great perfume with excellent longevity (over 12 hours on skin) and powerful projection for the first four hours (up to two metres) without being intrusive. Ideal for standing out in autumn and winter evenings.
I came across one of the early editions, before they added that fruity grape note, and it was a beast of a mineral oud, cold and sharp, with a deep, aged but non-powdery rose. It gave an original twist to the classic rose-oud combo and lived up to its name, Oscorud. Although it has similarities with LV’s Ombre Nomade or Xerjoff’s More Than Words, Oscurod is a crazier relative: while the LV one is balsamic and warm, Oscurod is musky, cold, and incisive. The evolution was linear, but the performance was brutal.

Although it sounds like LV’s Ombre Nomade or Xerjoff’s More Than Words, Oscurod is a more unhinged relative: while the others have balsamic notes that add warmth and refinement, this one emphasises musky facets that reinforce that mineral, cold, and incisive oud sensation. The evolution is somewhat linear, but the performance is very good.
I only tried the one from MyScentJourney and it caught my eye. It’s a grey oud, nothing like that horse smell it used to have, but rather something mineral and clean, as if it smells of stone. I suppose it’s due to that leather blend and the grape touch Casaniche brought. It’s a challenge because of how unusual it smells, not because it’s animalic, but I did like it. It gives a sophisticated, even formal air. My girlfriend loves it, even though oud isn’t her thing. It’s an experience. It’s only sold in boutiques, so if you want to try it, sample Ford’s Oud Minerale and add a touch of grape, or blend a classic oud with that Ford.
