Soleil de Feu vs Oud Wood

Soleil de Feu is viewed as an interesting and unique addition to the Soleil line with an appealing warm, spicy-lactonic character that evolves from cinnamon to creamy sweetness. However, the community is divided over its poor longevity compared to other Tom Ford releases and its premium pricing, with many considering it a pass unless you specifically enjoy tuberose and gourmand profiles.

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.
