In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Nishane A Date With Oud couples rich Ajwa dates with bitter grapefruit and black pepper before sinking into smoky leatherwood and agarwood. Tonka bean rounds out the base with an almond warmth that tempers the heavy smoke. It wears best during freezing winter evenings when dark gourmand accords project clearly.

Reviews →

Burberry Oud Storm opens with a crisp snap of black pepper and cardamom before settling into dry oakwood. The agarwood base stays remarkably soft, creating an airy woody profile for cold autumn afternoons. It offers an easy entry point for anyone curious about oud without heavy animalic notes.
