The drydown is a more merciful musk and patchouli with trace impressions of the rose, oud, and frankincense. Damn, son! Oud Touch is a heavy hitter—it has legs, soccer legs, with a radiance and power that requires caution when applying.

Fast forward to the present. I put just three sprays on and I really love this, it’s up there with Acqua di Palma Oud, Tom Ford’s Tobacco Oud and Penhaligon’s Halfeti. I'm not a heavy, dark oud fan, so this one is not for my liking. If you DO love oud, maybe this is something you'll love. Go with only 1 spray or absolutely max 2 sprays, or you will become a walking chemical weapon. This stuff is STRONG. After the eye-browsing fanfare of the opening, bold and medicinal, muscled oud and rose-oxide metallic rose, the heart fades into view, butterscotch, creme brulee, raspberries, and smoldering frankincense resin.A dark, aromatic oud countered with an uplifting, light incense note. The raspberry is of the synthetic type but it's very faint. Actually, this way it accompanies the florals quite well. If you're familiar with it you'll know what I mean when you smell it. Like any 'Oud' based fragrance, Less is best. But I didn’t know. I was overwhelmed and but it in the dark corner of my cupboard. Forgot about it until last year when I was having a clear out. Put it on and liked it.
