Good Blessed Sunday Morning Fragrance Family. I am up preparing for worship on this rainy, windy morning here in Chicago. We are beginning that slow transition toward spring, but the weather is reminding us that winter has not fully let go just yet. Today will be wet and blustery and the temperatures are expected to drop quite a bit over the next couple of days. Such is life in the Chi. My scent of the day is Oud Aquilaria by Omanluxury, a fragrance I have reviewed before. This one is beautiful on multiple levels. It is spicy, rich, floral, woody and finished with just the right touch of sweetness. The depth and balance in this composition make it a truly enjoyable wear and every time I reach for it I am reminded that I need to wear it more often. Wishing everyone a blessed Sunday. Enjoy your fragrances and make it a great day.

One of my all time favorite fragrances is Initio’s Oud for Greatness, but I didn’t replace it when my supply was used up, but instead went to Lattafa’s Oud for Glory.Both are composed of Oud, lavender, saffron, patchouli, musk and nutmeg and are super close in smell and longevity. Even the bottles are quite similar. Only the mass difference in price is what separates them. Both are rich and woody but may not be suitable to anyone who doesn’t like Oud. My choice for dinner date tonight.
