Oud Ispahan לעומת Oud Wood

Oud Ispahan is highly regarded by the r/fragrance community as a sophisticated, long-lasting oud fragrance that garners compliments and works excellently as a signature scent. However, its heavy nature and polarizing scent profile make it best suited for colder seasons and experienced fragrance enthusiasts rather than warm weather or blind-buy gifts.

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.
