This feels more like Oud than the Occult Oud, it’s that plastic sort of, loud sharpness of a medicinal leather accord type nature. This smells quite antiseptic in the opening like this stuff my fiend uses in his tattoo shop he calls ‘green soap’ it’s a kind of stingy alcoholic liquid but not an unpleasant smell at all. This is tinged with an earthy, composed moist soil smell, and patchouli which turns sweeter in the drydown to an almost vanilla sweetness. Someone has but that Profumum Roma Patchouly as a comparison and although I can see why because the earthy patchouli has a strange sweetness but in truth the Italian brand’s seems to be a lot more natural. This is very similar to stuff from barruti, that Nooud one, this has a similarly plasticy, saffronesque feel, something false or fake really, but I kinda like that. The drydown is really lovely if you find the opening to strange but this is a real changer, mutating throughout. I want to like Voronoi I really do but they make them hard to love.
