Vetiver 46 לעומת Oud Wood

Vetiver 46 is widely praised as a superior fragrance with excellent scent quality and depth, but the community is divided on its longevity and value. Le Labo's hand-blending process creates batch inconsistencies that frustrate consumers, with many recommending alternatives like 2 Man by Comme des Garçons or Encre Noire by Lalique as more affordable options, though none fully replicate the original's sophistication.

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.
