Oud 27 is a severely hit-or-miss fragrance that divides the community sharply. While some appreciate its distinctive animalic funk and consider it a meaningful introduction to niche perfumery, many find it genuinely unpleasant, describing it as smelling like barnyard or cat urine. Its recent discontinuation has sparked both nostalgia and concern among loyal fans seeking refills or backup bottles.
Strengths

- Memorable scent that launches fragrance journeys for some wearers

Weaknesses
- Extremely polarizing and divisive - described as unpleasant by many (cat urine, manure, pickled vegetables)
- Not a true oud fragrance with questionable natural ingredient content
- Discontinued and difficult to find, causing supply concerns
- Very funky smell that doesn't soften or mature over time
