INITIO Parfums Privés Oud for Greatness Neo Black Gold Project Eau de Parfum 90 ml

One of my first niche fragrances and for me the logical choice compared to the classic OfG by Initio, as the NEO is significantly more versatile and lighter. I enjoy wearing the scent in the office, but also in everyday life - mostly in cooler temperatures. The freshness in the Neo variant makes the scent much more wearable, suitable for everyday use, and for me also a bit more modern. The bergamot and lavender in the opening harmonize perfectly with the well-known saffron-oud combination, which then dominates. The fragrance retains a large part of the character and longevity of the original, while also distinguishing itself from the PdM Haltane by the absence of the praline note. Clear recommendation as an oud beginner fragrance!

A fragrance that gives off a certain aura when you enter a room. Saffron and oud in perfect combination. No matter where you go wearing this scent, it gives you presence and makes you feel like a doer. Endless compliments. Exactly what you need if you don’t want to smell like everyone else. I can only recommend it. You must try it.

This is a superb fragrance. I cannot get enough of it, it has a strong but not overpowering presence with smoky and dark tones.

Amazing scent you’ll want to wear everyday. Such a long lasting scent, very luxurious makes you feel confident all day long.
