The return of the howling plums
Background: Perfumos send me samples, I then test the perfumes sent without any knowledge and describe my response - that of an inexperienced dilettante.
First impression: I know him! But where from? What follows is protracted brooding and groaning in the roof timbers of the limbic system. Unsuccessful, as is so often the case when you have too little patience with yourself. Remembering doesn't quite work under stress.
Then it rings, a red light comes on in the Fontanella. Spicy, woody, sweet and above all creamy... That's Oud Wood by Tom Ford! Was someone having a joke here and wanted to test my memory? Or is it a dupe?
So let's get the sample case and hand over the designer concoction, which in my opinion never contains even a hint of real oud.
The nose clearly recognizes differences, the blind sample is much creamier and sweeter, Oud Wood seems less plummy and woodier. But minimal. Both could certainly impress the ladies as a gentleman; after all, both fade out the neanderthal aspects of male creation as a perfume of friendliness.
Nungut. Another comment from the 5-year-old expert? "Smells like a comet, so warm.". I never thought of it like that!
