Scorpion Intense vs Oud Wood

Scorpion Intense is highly regarded within the fragrance community as a powerful, distinctive Middle Eastern-inspired scent with excellent performance. The community praises its unique character and projection, though its strong woody/oud profile and niche nature may not appeal to everyone. Multiple members recommend it as a worthwhile addition to any collection.

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.
