About This Perfume
Versace Pour Homme Oud Noir comes across as smoky leather jacket, spicy incense resin. It opens with pepper, bitter orange and neroli, moves into frankincense, cardamom and saffron and settles on Oud, patchouli and leatherwood. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is easy to wear day or night. Reach for it for casual days. Released in 2013.
Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something woody and grounded for casual days.
- Sample first if: woody is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike spicy fragrances.
Around $74.
