This scent is all about deep, resinous woods with an intense and smoky oud at its heart, layered with Tauer’s signature rich and textured style. I’ll explore how L'Oudh masterfully balances the dark, earthy facets of oud with a touch of spice and resin, making it feel both mysterious and refined. If you’re a fan of bold, daring oud fragrances that stand out from the crowd, L'Oudh is a must-try. Don’t forget to like and subscribe for more in-depth fragrance reviews!

Man!! The approach you have to experiencing scents and how you convey your opinions about them is amazing! Even if I am not particularly interested in the scent, I click just to learn. Keep at it 👊🏾.
@@AngelMC11 thanks so much, I really appreciate your time!
Tauer deserves the world
@@animarenders he definitely deserves more recognition!
I'm also really attracted to weird, challenging, animalistic smells. I've been interested in Tauer for over a year and I feel ready to start getting these gems like a Tauer now that I have a large collection.
Love your perspective into fragrances. Happy to find your content. Thanks
Probably more interested in an animalistic Tauer ambergris accord
@@Funkincense the Tauer ambergris is not that prominent actually, it doesn’t smell funky or anything, it just adds a very dusty wear feeling to the scents. Lonestar Memories is affordable, hugely wow inducing and very unique!
@@SeldomlyOften cool. Thanks. I'll look into it. Much appreciation
That was hard… while sniffing my own l’oudh spray here on skin I could not come up describing how this smells other than, well, oud. 😉 A valliant effort. Chapeaux.
@@gerardzonjee well, there are many type of oud flavors, I like the smoother fruity ones way more and I feel that giving the general idea of which category this is could be helpful 😊
Very good review 🙂
Nice review 😊❤

#very interesting, good job and thanks for sharing such a good video.
I’m glad you liked it!

Hey, thank you so much for the musc ragaveur recommend. It's extremely beautiful. I live in a subtropical coastal jungle village right now & it was raining when I picked it up so I got to smell it in the rain. It smells kind of poisonous like a dangerous psychedelic plant, very into it 🖤
No problem, happy you like it!
Dangerous psychedelic plant! Love it! 😂😂
Yeah you know when you smell something like a rose scent and see a colour, i also have this. This one is like fractals so it's psychedelic to me & it has some secretive animal embedded in it. Like plant medicine. It's very special @@SeldomlyOften
very good product... 💝💝💝💝
You’ve helped push me to make my own “brain dump” channel about fragrances as well lol. We have very different tastes, with the overlap of loving Amouage.
Also, I’ll pass on this AT I think 😂
@@EndersFPS cool stuff! Link to channel?

Have been watching your contents for a while and absolutely love it . Can you try Montobacco Intensivo by Ormonde Jayne please
@@khanhnguyenvan5889 OJ is a house I really want to dive into soon and that is on my list!
For anyone interested: you can buy pure oud oil from brands like Ajmal ( 3mls ) without spending like crazy, it's a pretty hardcore smell
@@pasf4118 agree, this is just packaged and “approved” by a fun house.
Beautiful collection
It’s my pleasure to share.
Just bought a sample at Luckyscent based on this review. Looking forward to experiencing it!!
@@Thepeug whether you like it or not, just give it some time and be patient, it needs some time to sink its teeth in.
@@SeldomlyOften I appreciate scents that are more an experience than a perfume, as you say. And your descriptions always pique the curiosity.
I really appreciate the effort you put into reviewing a fragrance. Your taste are similar to mine and you like to challenge yourself. Some friends think it’s strange that I sometime purchase ( not necessarily wear) challenging fragrances. I’m very interested in the art of perfumery and I don’t really care about compliments or if others like it. Here are a few fragrances in my collection that are challenging to me but also show a perfumer’s ability:
Bukhoor by Thomas Kosmala
A City On Fire by Imaginary Authors
Mastin by V Canto
Unutamam by Nishane ( I really like this one, just strange)
Figment Man by Amouage ( too realistic but beautiful)
Imitation Man by Amouage
Fate Man by Amouage
The Afternoon of a Faun by Etat Libre d'Orange
Carnicure by Marlou
Safari by Blend Oud
Fathom V by BeauFort London
Juste Filthy by JD Jeffrey Dame
Into the Wild by Statik Olfactive
Checkmate by Frapin
@@gwyanm yes, people don’t get it but when you like this type of language, you really want to learn all about it!
Thanks for the recommendations, some I know, some I’ll get my nose on 😊
Beautiful ❤❤
Just got my hands on a sample this evening. Dense and STRONG in the opening, almost like paint thinner. I love Orto Parisi Megamare and have worn Stercus a number of times, but this is the first fragrance that I couldn’t bury my nose into. It mellows quickly, however, and becomes a mildly sweet, animalic scent.
An entertaining experience, but not something I’d want to smell like, ever.
Definitely not an easy wear, I do recommend getting friendly with it, if nothing else, to better appreciate stronger and weirder other frags 👍
@@SeldomlyOften turns out you were right! After two months, my sample has calmed considerably. Now I mostly get a gentle medicinal, woody oud.
@@Thepeug glad to hear that! Samples mature much quicker than bottles though 👍
Wonderful
Good video
Thanks for watching!
Great video! I really want to try Andy's stuff but its very hard to come by in the states. Maybe I'll see if he has a sample set that i can play with. Now, onto the long comment with my theories 🤣
As I'm looking forward to jumping the gun on that deal of silver oud i mentioned earlier, I'm also getting into DIY perfumery! I'm choosing silver oud as one of my first formulas to emulate, since I'm fortunate enough to be in contact with someone that has a very accurate formula to study for a good price. L'oudh seems like an ode to oud in the similar vein of Amouage's Silver Oud as well, although with each perfumer's respective takes on the variety of oud they worked with:
(take with a grain of salt since i haven't tried l'oudh or any tauer, but really do plan to soon! and the silver oud batches i tried have probably also had a bit more time to sit, so more oomph in animalics compared to your 'I' batch)
- Tauer's site specifically mentions oud from laos, which can either be from the Aquilaria crassna, Aquilaria malaccensis, or Aquilaria sinensis varities. Sinensis is usually found in borneo, and usually associated with the clean, incense and spice aspect of the wood. Malaccensis is generally a wild variety, and it can have animalic aspects, but often also comes with some smoky nuances and most uniquely jammy fruit notes. Crassna, what i believe this can be as the descriptors match up, is often associated with Thai(smooth) and cambodian(skanky) varieties and the cambodian in particular can have strong animalic tones and potent dry woods veering on paint varnish. This can contribute to a lot of the 'pissy' nature you speak of, and Andy's dosage of the quality he has along with the other supporting ingredients help to carry that personality onward. I also suspect that his castoreum accord is probably synthetic, and those capture the faux leather, almost plasticky nature of it pretty damn well. Andy chose to fill out and balance the formula with sweet ambery resins, that probably accentuated what the oud already offered.
- Silver Oud seems to share a lot of the same notes as L'oudh in the core, but altered to capture the personality of varieties of oud found in the Indian subcontinent: stemming from Aquilaria agallocha. This focuses a bit more on the fecal, indolic propertes that mingle with strong smoky leather and smooths out into almost a spiced fur. It blends in with cypriol amazingly, which is why the two are seen together a ton - and sure enough from what I see in a formulation of silver oud I'm working with, cypriol oil is in double digit percents of the composition! There also is an approach to animalics that are more natural at the core, unafraid to bring aspects of that fecal nature since ambrarome is a labdanum product laced with fecal, milky, overall musky ingredients, and the castoreum in it seems to be genuine. The only ingredients pulling these back are solid hits of vanilla which probably mingles with the also huge amount of patchouli to make the experience slightly more palatable to your personal taste than the approach in L'oudh. (also finding quite a bit of solvent in the silver oud formula, which could mean it may have been watered down over formulations... or maybe just added in to help the huge dose of naturals dissolve. who knows? but i don't think Tauer's operation would need to result to reformulation like amouage has without him telling his audience first)
Overall, I find these two really interesting in their perceived differences while a ton of the notes and general vibe seems to be in the same ballpark! They're both extremely high quality. It's a testament to how perfumery is so nuanced, and how even just the variety in one natural can alter the intention behind the final product.
@@ethanrrs hey! Your comment is definitely detailed and super interesting! All I can say from my point of view is that Silver Oud and Tauer’s smell NOTHING like each other, not even in the same family of frags. Silver Oud is creamy and smooth, base heavy, warm and enveloping. Tauer’s take is bitter, dry, woody, with a focus on top and midrange.
@@SeldomlyOften and that's probably by intent as well! The nature of the ouds used probably play to those respective levels of the pyramid as you notice, and so the perfumers probably also gave respective bumps to the ratios of ingredients that reflect the nuances- in a similar way to how kurkdjian made gentle fluidity gold and silver from the same materials. Andy's additional usage of mechanic-shop styrax, plasticky castoreum, with whatever radiant possibly metallic musk probably contributes the most to that difference, where silver oud is grounded in a bath of cypriol and patchouli vibrating at the base level like you said. Silver oud also has a good bit of iso e super and maybe you're a little anosmic to that if it isn't as radiant in top notes personally
@@ethanrrs I’m very anosmic to ISO E, Smells like nothing to me! Thanks for the info 😊
@@SeldomlyOften no problem! The iso e in silver oud probably serves to envelope the whole thing and lift it for a bit, so not as a full-on note, but yeah, I barely smell it on its own either. Seems to be the case that through the overuse of iso e in the wild in nearly every perfume, and the introduction of stronger chemicals that overpower it, people get a bit anosmic. And some Amouages with a good chunk of iso e may have even never been reformulated or just a little bit, like epic and memoir. They're more victims of the current state of the industry's stronger chemicals, haha
Nice ❤
Lair du desert Moroccan is an absolute masterpiece
Yes, amazing fragrance, incredibly unique in the saturated amber space.
Sounds Amazing
@@seanp7871 sarcastic or not, it’s an interesting concoction for sure 🤣
@@SeldomlyOften not at all lol 😂
interesting and informative!
@@Eloisescents0309 thank you 😊
I enjoyed quite a lot your comparison between Oud and truffle and I can picture your co-workers face when you wera this. Personally I enjoy more the barny-yard fecal aspect of oud yeah I am weird. My fav is the sadly discontinued Oudh Infiny by Dusita It is interesting that you came up with 1740 and that you perceived the honeyed smell of it when you compared to Tauer's oud: immortelle (my fav fower note) can have a syrupy quality to it and in 1740 this comes up thanks to the davana I believe..anyway looking forward for that review. Cheers. btw samples of Phi Insense Rose, and Golestan on their way....
Yes! I do believe the lost nuanced and beautiful things in life need time to be appreciated! I also prefer the sweeter, fruitier and poopier barnyard oud! Any other suggestions? I recently bought Varanasi by Meo Fusciumi and it’s the most amazing thing ever!
@@SeldomlyOften I enjoyd Varanasi but the beautiful opening did not last longer on me and the drydown was too reminiscent of Opus IV. Bortnikoff is good (thinking about Oud Maximum) and I enjoyed quite a bit La via del profumo with its three oud caravan, especially number one. Also the Moon by Malle if memory serves (but I smelled it long time ago)
@@alexchog9383 yeah I wish the opening was longer lasting but the progression is really satisfying! I have only one Bortnikoff (2 actually but one is an attar): Heure Exquise. Love the brand but difficult to get.
@@SeldomlyOften I got Oud Maximum, Musk Khabib and Chypre du Nord; a Russian friend brough them to me. I believe ecuacion natural carries the brand? How is l'Heure Exquise? Bortnikoff seems a master in the use of champaca, a note which i like.
Review Papillon Anubis and Salome please
@@absolutness YES! I really want to get those but Papillon does not ship here! I’ll get them when I leave Switzerland for some days.
i love your love for Tauer 😂
@@zambowman unconditional almost 😂😂
According to a reel on his Instagram, Tauers are around 60 ml. What a nice surprise!
Do you have any suggestions for hot humid climate from the brand, Daniel
I just bought Baraonda and I can already tell that I LOVE it. Thank you for your previous recommendation, mate!
@@KingDomFurnDing hot humid weather huh? L’Air du Desert Marocain to me is a hot weather frag but you need to be into the amber, spicy type of thing. Another great fresh one is Phtaloblue, very aromatic and interesting.
I love uour taoer
Nice
Thanks
Wawww❤❤❤❤
Not the hamster at the office 🎉 Oudh is made from fungus infected agarwood so it's totally rotten definitely acquired. The synthetic is called akigalawood. I am pretty obsessed with grossing myself out on it. If you don't like the rubbery burnt tyre vibe you probably won't like Oud for Greatness or the clone Oud for Glory which are my favourite dark cold gothic Oudh&patchouli& Lil lavender + they make you smell like you're in the Matrix. But maybe try some oils from Swiss Arabian or you can try Ameer Al Oudh (Lattafa) which I hated when I first tried it cos it smells like [redacted] but it's addictive unfortunately for other people
@@assumptaai I like grossing myself out too, I’m a huge fan of understanding the thought process behind stuff. L’OUDH is not for the office but I like to see what I can get away with 😂
OFG is… ok, had a quick sniff but can’t remember much, I have a sample lined up for a comparison 👍
I have a 5ml bottle of this. It's the plain little bottle with the handwritten "L'Oudh" on it. But, unfortunately, the little ones are dabber bottles. I would prefer to have this with the sprayer. I like the new design, but 50ml of this fragrance, I think, is just too much. Would like this to come maybe in a 25 or 30ml sprayer bottle.
@@bjoern0975 maybe get a small 5ml decant sprayer thing, I hate dabbed frags as well, the wear experience is severely impacted.
Good
Thanks
"Stench" is actually one of my favourite english word. 😂 Underused in the fragcom imo. Perhaps to the dismay of many. 😆 Can you imagine a woman having it as a last name?
Woman: "Hello. I'm Rebecca Stench."
Me: "Hi! I'm Juri. Juri Kowszyt." "And yes, the Polish "w" is pronounced like a "v" and the "sz" like "sh". Grreat success. 🐮🤣
@@justaddlight 😂😂😂 Love it!
I’m pretty sure someone out there has that misfortune 😂
This one is actually not very Oudi, more industrial rubber, which then becomes smoky, woody, and earthy in the base, which I liked a lot. From what I remember, the harsh rubber opening fades quickly.
@@alonperlmuter5328 quickly is relative, on me it takes about 1.5h. A lot of the kids I smelt are very rubbery like this actually, I tend to like the more sweet/rotten ones.
Wow
❤️❤️
Melting asphalt, overheated tires, dry, dusty air me and my hamster on the way to Jesolo🤩 can’t complain
@@nataliyarichei on the way to Jesolo? 😂😂
Not bad
To me this one is just a collectors piece. I dont see people wearing it much, also dont see anyone new in perfumery, or random guy walking into shop and grabbing this one. Personally, i believe that people should be wearing any fragrance any time, so if you wanna wear this in the office, why not.
@@Principemostprincipe 100% agree on everything, the office situation is also true but I like to keep my colleagues in mind, I try to be to imposing 😂
Wearing lonestar memories today, l'oudh smelled like bad rubber
@@RichMitch hey Rich! Lonestar Memories is amazing, one of my favs from the house, maybe my fav!

I love all sorts of oud, but I don't think this is for me.
@@FRD-HDD I love oud too and this is a hard one for me. I prefer the fruity rotten ones for sure.
You are definitely not an intern in the office otherwise you’d have been fired by now 😂 this is the anti molecule 01
