Bois d'Argent לעומת Oud Wood

Bois d'Argent is appreciated for its refined, unique woody-smoky scent character and decent longevity, but the community consensus is that it lacks the projection and sillage expected for its price point. Many express disappointment with the modern reformulation compared to the original 2004 version, and debate whether the expensive bottle size justifies the subtle performance.

Tom Ford Oud Wood is genuinely well-regarded by the community as a beautiful, unique woody fragrance that deserves its reputation despite hype concerns. However, poor skin longevity (especially post-reformulation) is a consistent frustration for the price point, leading many to recommend cheaper alternatives like Nishane Kredo or Thameen Carved Oud for better performance.
