This is my favorite oud fragrance bar none. Cuts through the cold like no other. This is just awesome. Got it on sale during the holidays. I got reeeeaaaly lucky. Great review!
Thanks so much for watching & sharing mate 🍻
Lao Oud is stellar! It feels like Dmitry & Russian Adam both made a chocolate coffee cake recipe, but they switched houses to do it. Lao Oud is a snapshot of the raw ingredients, and Russian Oud II is the silky mixed batter & frosting. I'm so happy I don't have to choose between them! Thank you for another great review.
That's a great way to describe them!
Thanks for watching & commenting 🍻
Thanks for the in-depth reviews. I ordered eight different Bortnikoff samples and Laos Oud might be my favorite. I think that slightly funky "cheese" note you mention is what I love about it. Unfortunately, Oud Maximus wasn't available, but I'm keeping my eye out for that.
There's not a less-than-stellar one of the bunch, but my other favorites are probably Tabac Dore and Musk Khabib.
Sayat Nova is interesting - I love how it starts, with stewed apricots and something that reminds me of antique wood paneling in an old house, but over time it begins to remind me more of some exotic spiced tea, which I'm not quite as crazy about.
And I never thought I'd be into citrus/floral scents, but his Amber Cologne is really stunning.
Couldn't have recapped the brand better and our opinion match 💪🐏
Thank you for review👍🔥
I love my full bottle of Lao Oud 50 ml 2021, unbelievable, amazing🚀
Absolutely one of his all time best works 💯
Yes! This one is neck and neck with Oud Maximus for my fav Bortnikoff. You hit the nail on the head with your review, good sir! 🙏
I first had a decanting of the 2nd version and ended up with a bottle of the latest version with the rings around the cap neck, although not at the same time for direct comparison. Still smells amazing to me, fwiw! Not sure how he sustains these fragrances with our being so scarce. Props to Dmitry! 💪🏻 I wish he still made more like this though.
I agree.. I think this is one of the last great Bortnikoffs 🥲
I loved your review. I really appreciate this kind of videos, very complete and detailed information. I ordered a bottle of Lao Oud. Regards from argentina.
Ahhh congrats... my favorite Bortnikoff as things currently stand 😊
Gentlemen and Gentlewomen of culture and taste, we meet again.
Welcome brother 🙏🙏🙏
Only Bortnikoff I have is Amber Cologne thanks to you from one of your oud videos. Pumped that this will be a Bortnikoff week because it might help me decide which one I’ll pick up next… one day.
That's awesome Luis.... glad I can be of some assistance my friend 💪🐏
To me Oud Maximus is the ultimate Bortnikoff 🤟🏽💯 maybe Sir Winston would be the second. I don’t know why but Lao Oud didn’t do well on my skin, it smelled off putting somehow.
Sorry to hear that.. for some reason I am loving that off putting quality more and more the more I wear it 🙂
Thanks for watching & sharing your thoughts 🍻
This was a blind buy for me, at first i thought wow this is so weird and bad to WOW i love this and is now my favorite
That's awesome! Those are the best frags 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you Ramsey.
Bravo Oliver.
I still haven't tried any Bortnikoff's creation, but I will as soon as I get the chance.
Lao Oud Maximus for the Monarch.
Sounds great !
Scent Of The Day :
Roja - Enigma Pour Homme parfum
Cheers...
Cheers Dušan...do report back and let me know what you make of them once you have given them a sniff 🤌🤌🤌
Ram approved!! BUYING
Absolutely... actually I think that its the best bortnikoff 🤌🤌🤌
Hey Ram! If you will heat slowly the fragrance, those particles will dissolve. It is some of the raw ingridients has thickened likely due to transportation with lower temperatures. If you heat it up, it will dissolve and stay like this fine in the perfumers alcohol.
This happens to some fragrances with naturals, although rarely.
This also means that you might be missing a certain note there.
It is most likely the Cacao, or maybe some coumarine parts from Tonka. A natural cacao raw ingridient is white solid.
That's great info.... thanks so much for sharing Mr Drusso 💪🐏
Interesting video - I ordered 6 Bortnikoff samples yesterday after seeing this. I just spent the last year doing a deep dive into Roja and PdV, so will be interested in what you have to say about the latter. I just wore PdV on a beach in Brazil and the citruses lasted all day, even when the coffee pokes through in the dry down. PdV 9 has a beautiful saltiness and otherwise reminds me of the Chanel Allure line. I have full bottle of 4,9 and 25 while I bought Essence Rare for my wife, now one her favourites.
That's awesome... I can't wait to dive into the PdV line either... thanks so much for watching & commenting 💪🐏
Comparing Maximus, Lao Oud, and Monarch.
When I first tried, Monarch was best, then Maximus, and Lao.
Now 5 months later, I clearly enjoy Lao Oud the most.
Maximus has a creamy cheesy oud, but it got a bit boring fast
With Lao, I enjoy the bright aromatic accord of pink pepper and beeswax.
The chocolate is stronger in Monarch, but Monarch just gets too smooth and creamy.
With Lao, I get the district elements, yet all well blended and balanced.
I do enjoy the Areej classics for the reason you mentioned.
I agree that Lao is more remenisant of Russian Adam work. Mysterious Oud also reminds me more of Adam's bolder work.
It's really crazy how the script flips as the months and years go on... thanks for sharing Ged
Yes!
Cheers Rams ,yeah this was the last Bortnikoff I have purchased in 2021, not been stirred since ,missed OG Triad and somewhat hesitant to buy latest version?? .Oud Maximus is a beauty,love the way he named it after his son Maximilian plus also doubles as maximum Oud profile at that time however he claims Lao Oud has got the most Oud oil to date now .looking forward to Oud Monarch.and wear your white gloves and stop messing up the plaques lol, Roja will be pissed 😡 hahaha, cheers man have a good one 🙏✌️👍
🤣🤣🤣
I need to get some white gloves...that will make a hilarious video one dsy
@@RamseytheRam hahahaha😝
I should have bought this over oud monarch. I really like the barn yard oud in Lao Oud, but on me that went away in about 30 minutes and dried down very similar to Oud Monarch.
Raally?! I wonder if it's different formulations 🤔
Great review! I am looking for an oud heavy fragrance to add to my collection. How does this compare to Tabac Doré? I am sampling lao oud and oud monarch atm. I find the latter somewhat too floral. Iam also interested in Tabac doré for the tabacco oud combo.
I haven't reviewed tabac Dore on the channel yet but Lao Oud is much heavier on the animalic ouds and chocolate where tabac Dore focuses on the tobacco
First like in comment, and I will be listening to the stream while I do cardio
Thank you Matt ... I am heading to the gym myself 🏋♂️
@@RamseytheRamnice what’d ya work on? I did some hamstrings and back. Minor sciatic pain now after a week.
Every time I hear you mention the coffee… I think of this scene

I've had Musk Cologne in a cart for weeks waiting to pull the trigger....then two nights ago I saw it was sold out...do you think it's discontinued? I HAVE to get a bottle....may buy Lao Oud later this year.
That I don't know... but that really sucks, sorry to hear that 😔
This is amazing! In my buy list.
Yes this is currently my all time favorite Bortnikoff 😍
I think Lao Oud is the perfect Valentines day scent if two oud-loving dudes are dating 😂
😂😂😂
I’ve purchased both Lao Oud and Oud Maximus after watching your videos. You should be getting sponsered by Bortnikoff 😂
😂😂😂
Well those are two of my all time favorite Bortnikoffs so you got two good ones...the other one which I will review tomorrow which I think is definitely full bottle worthy is Oud Monarch which I will wear and review tomorrow for Valentines day ❤️
@@RamseytheRamhave you ever got your nose on Amir 2 by Ajmal? I reckon you’ll really like that. It’s from their more premium line but can be found on discounters sometimes. It’s a lovely barnyardy oud scent. I’m from the U.K otherwise I would have loved to send you samples to try and get you to review some of these.
Also I think the gold plaque is supposed to be discoloured I believe. My bottle is exactly the same whereas Oud Maximus the gold plaque is fine.
@@bashj255 yes I own a bottle of Amir two and have a sample of Amir one floating around here somewhere 🙏🙏🙏
I don't think LAO Oud was ever in wood cap
It was not u are correct
I have RusssianOud II and a sample of LAO Oud. Just sampled it on skin to remind me and find it very similar to ROII mints the musk. The cocao is prominent in both with the Oud
“minus”
Purchased Oud Maximus and Lao Oud recently (new cap and sprayer by the way).
Lao Oud is definitely more funky than Oud Maximus.
Oud Monarch is indeed dark chocolate, a bit boring compared to the above mentioned.
I know what you mean... thanks so much for watching & commenting 💪🐏
Puts a new perspective on "shitty coffee." 😌 Flavourville here we come. 🧻
😂😂😂
🐈☕️💩
the reformulations are concerning
I know what you mean.... reformulation is just a thing especially with fragrances that use natural ingredients that can change from batch to batch
I know what you mean... finding the older bottles
