I know Oud is a topic from time to time and The Goods did a review of their top choices for Ouds, plus a little more about OUD fragrances overall. https://www.insidehook.com/grooming/best-oud-colognes

Good morning Frag Fam and happy Monday. Wishing you all a strong, centered start to the week, the kind where your scent sets the tone before you even say a word. May your coffee be bold, your goals be clear and your fragrance trail be undeniable. Today’s first wear of Vetiver in Wool by Scents of Wood is a smooth, intriguing ride right from the atomizer. The opening wraps you in a soft earthy warmth, as if vetiver was woven into fabric and pulled fresh from a cedar-lined wardrobe. There’s a cozy elegance here, something both refined and comforting, like a tailored wool coat on a crisp morning. As it settles, the woods grow richer and the composition gains a gentle creaminess that keeps the vetiver from ever feeling sharp. The projection is impressive, effortlessly radiating off the skin, and the sillage leaves a beautiful, steady presence in the air. For a first impression, it feels like a scent built for confident, quiet power and it’s already proving itself to be a standout in performance.
