Boucheron Oud De Carthage EDP 125 ml
Plus- en minpunten
door onze specialisten
Boucheron Oud De Carthage wordt vaak omschreven als een zachte, verfijnde benadering van oud, met duidelijke accenten van honing, tonkaboon, amber en wierook. Veel reviewers vinden het een warme, balsemachtige geur met een fluwelige textuur, waarbij de oud meer houtig en leerachtig is dan dierlijk of scherp. Daardoor is hij goed draagbaar en geschikt voor wie normaal geen zware oudgeuren verdraagt. De kwaliteit van de compositie en de afwerking worden regelmatig geprezen, zeker in verhouding tot de prijs. Tegelijkertijd merken kenners op dat de oud relatief mild blijft en dat de geur minder origineel is, omdat hij doet denken aan andere moderne designer-ouds. Sommigen missen wat kracht en diepte in vergelijking met intensere nichegeuren, en de zoete amber-honingtoon kan voor bepaalde dragers te gourmand of zwaar worden. Voor kopers die een elegante, toegankelijke introductie tot oud zoeken, is dit echter een veilige en veelzijdige keuze.

A work of brazen self-plagiarism on Ropion's part, Oud de Carthage is just a slightly tweaked, leather-dominant Oud Malaki. Compared to Oud Malaki, this has less smoky, dry spice and more floral tones, with the leather dominating the mid. The base skews more vanillic in Oud de Carthage. The oud in the name is most perceptible in the opening. I like Oud Malaki, and I also like this. With the milder dose of spice, this might be the moderately more wearable option of the two, but it also misses a little bit of Oud Malaki's oompf.

This is a bit of a surprise from Ropion whom I associate with far sultrier things when it comes to ouds. Here, instead, we have a sweetish, greenwoods concoction. There's a sappy gentleness to the woody tones, with a bit of maturity thrown in from a buttery sandal note with a hint of coconut about it. Peppery nuances and some incense smoke dance in an out but the main event here is the pleasing evocation of just-stripped scented wood, with even the honey note reading more like a light resinous emanation of the wood itself rather than the cloying and buzzy animalic accent some might expect. The control of sweetness is just right, making the whole thing seem natural and unforced. Doesn't have the profundity of Ropion's more swoonsome creations but is well-constructed and with impeccable manners, so probably good for office wear too.
