Cardamom Oud Geïnspireerd door - Oud Wood

The 20% concentration really shows—a single spritz on my wrist lasted through a full workday, and the cardamom note stays bright without ever turning sharp. It’s smooth and close-wearing, like a warm secret rather than a loud announcement. Even the dry-down, where the vanilla comes in, feels intimat

I was a bit worried it’d be too heavy, but the 20% concentration actually makes it last all day without being overpowering. The cardamom and vanilla blend perfectly with the oud, creating this warm, intimate scent that feels both elegant and effortless.

The cardamom note really shines here—it’s smooth without being sweet, and the vanilla keeps it warm rather than heavy. I put it on before bed and could still catch whiffs on my collar the next afternoon, which says a lot for a 20% concentration.
