Which notes do Woody Oud and Oud Wood share?
Both fragrances stand for a woody, warm-spicy profile. The verifiably shared elements are limited but defining:
- Heart: sandalwood
- Accords: woody, warm spicy
It is precisely the sandalwood and the warm-spicy, woody overall impression that carry the comparison.
Where do they differ?
Tom Ford Oud Wood is more broadly built: it brings cardamom, pink pepper and rosemary in the top, patchouli, oud and vetiver in the heart, and vanilla, tonka and amber in the base — with a powdery-aromatic facet. Woody Oud by Maison Alhambra focuses more tightly on oud, amberwood and Cambodian oud, which makes it feel more straightforwardly woody. So it does not mirror the original note for note.
