Oud Save the King, from Atkinsons was released in 2013. The perfumer behind this creation is Amandine Clerc-Marie. It has the top notes of Bergamot and Tea, middle notes of Orris Root and Suede, and base notes of Agarwood (Oud) and Sandalwood.
A very sweet oud scent that I instantly recognized but wasn't quite sure why? A bizarre and complex mixture of fruity top notes, orris root hint of cinnamon, then loads of amber, vanilla, and an unmistakable but utterly lost Oud accord. Took me all of about 10 seconds to realize where I had smelled this one before...Scent story 24 Gold! Oh course it is and practically identical too. This is a touch more refined than 24 Gold in truth, and so it should be for the price. It doesn't cloy so much in the opening and is less Full blooded when you try them together. The drydown is more woody and the Oud save the king has a sandalwood throughout which 24 does too but this smells a little better quality to my nose. (again for the price it ought to be) Basically, the gist I'm getting at is this fragrance has more oud and sandalwood and less vanilla as it settles. However, 24 Gold has more notes and great performance and is remarkably cheap. Oud save the king performed very well as expected and has altogether less silage than 24 but still very good longevity, dying down and becoming more manageable. I love this smell, it's wonderful but if you like it save yourselves a few quid and get 24 Gold.
