I've decided to start boycotting companies that churn out extortionately priced "oud" perfumes like this. It's an insult to people who love perfume that they make these synthetic duds and claim there's laotian, or any other specific, oud inside. This smells like straight up akigalawood, the aroma-chemical du jour, with some cheap vetiver chemical. It's cheap-smelling and uninspired, and I'm completely done with Affinessence. If you like this profile, check out any cheap perfume by Quentin Bisch from the last ten years and you'll most likely get an akigalabomb that's more interesting than this.
