Tom Ford Private Blend Oud Wood Eau de Parfum 100ml Spray Kenneth Cole Acqua di Parma sits it

Acqua di Parma sits it against neroli and a whisper of sea salt

A teaspoon of micellar water and it lifts cleanly at the end of the night

Three sprays from the bottle hold through dinner and beyond

Pump three or four times into damp roots

First thirty seconds: citrus and spice

Tom Ford Private Blend Oud Wood Eau de Parfum 100ml Spray Kenneth Cole Acqua di Parma sits itOud sits dark and resinous at the centre that woody, almost animalic note that gets expensive very quickly. Tom Ford wraps it in cardamom and cedar, then pulls the whole thing back with ambroxan so it doesn't tip into incense burner territory. Unisex EDP, 100ml. Four to five hours on skin, longer on fabric. Sits closest to a cologne for someone who wants wood without apology, not a fragrance for layering or understatement.
