Bang-in-the-middle oud, so unexceptional it could have been created by a bot (which is possibly insulting to bots that are now capable of composing pieces of classical music that fool audiences). It's mildly spicy, it's midway on the sweetness scale, it's definitely woody, no doubt about that, but not in any standout manner. About the only thing that's a bit different is a bit of proper myrrh, which imparts dust, resinous dryness, and some character.
Is it no good, then? Absolutely not. Nothing that has echoes of M7 about it could possibly be. It's just that there is nothing that distinguishes it from the legion of competent ouds out there.

A citrus-herbal top note dyad sees the name-giving oud added very early on my skin. The out really is at the core of this scent throughout its whole development: a pleasant oud, not too dark but also not very special. Neither are the other components, and it recedes to be close to my skin very soon.

The performance is not on the exciting side either, with soft sillage, limited projection and five hours of longevity in total.

Another quite all right synthetic oud scent, part of the current oud avalanche - not special and not bad either. 2.25/5
