Amouage is a fragrance house without equal. Simply always at the forefront of all things that are good. My very favorite house by a long shot. They truly deserve the respect they get.
@@valzalel5203 Journey is such an underrated fragrance from this House. Both the man and the woman versions. You seem like you’re on the right track. Check out Epic man if you like a woody chypre…
uuuuuuu Daaaark!!! this one is a must for me, Cecile Zarokian has become one of my favorite perfumers, love her work. this December I will get for my birthday this one, and maybe also Overture. Thank you Sebastian!!!
Cecile Zarokian also created Amouage Epic for Woman. In an interview she says she was honored that Amouage came to her again to create two more fragrances, this and Material, because of the success of Epic Woman (one of her first creations)
Cecile did amouage epic woman when she was just an intern so this is her 3rd amouage. I would be open trying silver oud but not for 305 bucks for 50 ml. I will wait and see if it hits discounters over the next few years. Cheers -Ramsey
The prices here in Oman are lower I bought mine by 247$. I asked about the size and they said they might launch 100 ml later and the estimated price is 364$. I find some similarities between this and Carved Oud from Thameen but with Amouage touches.
I received Silver Oud a few days ago. I agree with your description of it. I happen to enjoy it. I love dark and smoky fragrances, especially around this time of the year (Fall/Winter). It wears well on my skin. Thanks for you review.
Good job, Sebastian ! I love Amouage, I do have the first 10 Opus from the Library Collection. I have to try both this one and Opus XI, as I might enjoy as well. If Silver Oud is a sort of like Monsieur from Frederic Malle, than I will need it at my collection.
I just got this, opening is challenging but the dry down is really nice as the notes settle. Perfect for winter and literally 1 or 2 sprays is all you need
@The Perfume Guy was at the barbers earlier today and I got compliments from all the customer and my barber. I think the animalic element is what's challenging but as dries and settles the vanilla and leather really shine. With the added smokiness you feel invincible, like a superhero with a Cape on haha
My first purchase of any type of oud is from Armaf. I really like it. So here is My question: Is Oud a smell that can be worn as a signature sent for weeks at a time? Even from different houses, can I wear Oud every day? I went a very inexpensive way to wear this Oud fragrance and I really like it. I sprayed three shots directly on skin.
Great review. I recently succumbed to my fragrant desires and purchased Shem, by Nishane, and Silver Oud by the dream team of Amouage and Cecile! Shem arrived last night and expect Silver Oud to arrive early next week. I am a huge fan of the classic Amouage lines (warming to the new) and am hoping that Silver Oud reminds me of the classics (dark, smoky & incense). I was also intrigued by the marketing for Silver Oud: Confusion , Passion, Destruction. I know that you like the bottle presentation but did the theme also resonate with you? Thanks as always
You shouldn't be disappointed. It harkens back to the Amouage of old IMHO. It reminds me of an ancient black cloak that's been unearthed from a forest that's been burned down to the ground. Dry down it does sweeten to my nose to something akin to Interlude. It's the black panther / black beast of the collection. Projection is quite strong at the front of this and lasts on clothes for well over a day.
Someone on fragrantica said it smells like an Electronic repair shop.. It does actually smells like that old dusty metal casings, smell of solder burning etc..etc..
Would be interesting to see a ranking of the darkest of the darkest of mysterious fragrances. Among designers probably Bentley for Men Absolute ought to be on the list.
@@ThePerfumeGuy Thank you. We just received Amouage Overture here in Australia and I have ordered it after your review. Looking forward to the next one. 🙏🏻
You said *" Dark Woods "* . My nose has turned into a snout digging for truffles. I love Profumo Roma's Arso, along with Imaginary Authors City on Fire etc. I'm a huge fan of Amouage. I just brought a pre Reflection Man to work and sprayed a number of people. I'll certainly will be getting a decant.
Could this be compared to some of the Beaufort' s creations ? I hope Amouage did that really strong, interesting, different.... cause the last 4 - 5 perfumes/ before this one/ didn't attract my attention 😒 the last ones are like " mass market"
I'm so excited for this. I hear from folks this is going to put Amouage back on the map with their releases similar to their past releases since the changeover. I hope so.
I read that she had full freedom to create this, including no budget. I am guessing the 50ml is definitely due to the prices of the ingredients, aa you touched on. I only want 100ml bottles as well but may have to make an exception.
Enjoy your fragrance reviews - and I'm so glad you removed your hat! I always wondered what you looked like w/o it - very handsome and much better looking. Keep being you!
Don't spay then immediately go out because the first notes that hit you is like a toilet everybody's been to but never flushed but gets better when it dries off
Man this sounds really good, really good. So is it actually part of the opus collection officially or just in that bottle style? I forget the other Amouage scent Cecile did 🤔 epic I think was the one.
Just like interlude vintage bottle ( on my skin) all day long, I don’t know how the new interlude batch smells like, that’s way I bought 2 bottles of silver oud so POWERFUL 👍😎😎

Will check Sebastian.
Dear Sebastian, as long as I know,- the first one was Epic, second creation of Cecile Zarokian was Material ;) Enjoyed your review of Silver Oud ☺️
This sounds so good. Not as an every day scent but one you treasure. Amouage has really been knocking it out of the park.
Amouage is a fragrance house without equal. Simply always at the forefront of all things that are good. My very favorite house by a long shot. They truly deserve the respect they get.
Well said
Couldn’t agree more.
the first niche fragrance i've ever sampled was Jubilation 25 through scentbird years ago lol...
guess where I am now in my fragrance journey lol

Newbie here! Very nice introduction to Amaouge Silver Oud!! I like the way you laid out the notes and adjectives! Thank you.
This fragrance is very useful in winter days
This sounds amazing!
Nice haircut, great review, keep it up..
The one I've been anticipating too! Cheers Sebastian for always covering my favourite house.
Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed night
Hair is looking good! Thanks for the review!
I would love to sample it but as of now I don't see it listed anywhere.
Thank you. I’m learning a lot about fragrances. Keep up the good work.
Glad you like them!
This was my first Amouage purchase. I have 6 now. Silver Oud is my favorite Amouage!
It’s quite dirty and animalic
The prices here in Oman are lower I bought mine by 247$. I asked about the size and they said they might launch 100 ml later and the estimated price is 364$. I find some similarities between this and Carved Oud from Thameen but with Amouage touches.

Interested in the same style fragrances as silver oud, hope to see it very soon 😃
Great video thank you Sebastian

Is it Beaufort’s London dark and Smokey ???
Ooh I like the sound of this and I love oud. Thank you. I must get a sample.
I just got this, opening is challenging but the dry down is really nice as the notes settle. Perfect for winter and literally 1 or 2 sprays is all you need
Totally agree!
@The Perfume Guy was at the barbers earlier today and I got compliments from all the customer and my barber.

Dear Sebastian, Thanks for reviewing this new fragrance from Amouage sounds like a magical concoction. Thanks a million
Vid request for your 10-15 favorite/ most worn for summer of 2021. So we can be prepared for next year...☺️
Hi Sebastian i tried yesterday it is available in Oman Amouage shop but I feel it have vibe of interlude .
I love oud but must test this one it sounds like before blind buy.
BTW, great hair cut and you look better with out the baseball cap. Personal opinión.
Excellent work my brother
I was happy to see a second fragrance review from you today. Thank you! Silver Oud sounds too dark for me but my husband might like it.
I'm wearing black ambergris from anonim, so I'm sure this is right up my ally, just wish it was an Extrait. How the longevity?
Is there any similarities with opus XI from library collection of Amouage?
Very different presentation for an Amouage
My first purchase of any type of oud is from Armaf. I really like it. So here is My question: Is Oud a smell that can be worn as a signature sent for weeks at a time? Even from different houses, can I wear Oud every day? I went a very inexpensive way to wear this Oud fragrance and I really like it. I sprayed three shots directly on skin.
Hi Sebastian, isn’t it the 3rd fragrance Cecile made for Amouage? Didn’t she make Epic man?
You mean epic woman not man
@@عبادي-ن4ز Indeed, I meant Epic woman.

Looking forward to get a bottle but the 50ml bottle is kind of a turn off. Will surely buy it anyways. By the way nice haircut.
Would be interesting to see a ranking of the darkest of the darkest of mysterious fragrances. Among designers probably Bentley for Men Absolute ought to be on the list.
Next week. It’s already shot!! 😀
@@ThePerfumeGuy Awesome, looking forward to it!
So much better with the hair cut , bro 😎
Sebastian, is it in anyway comparable to Rien from etat libre d'orange?
I can see why you might think it's similar to Rien but similar idea different smell. Stay tuned for a video of dark scents next week! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy Thank you. We just received Amouage Overture here in Australia and I have ordered it after your review. Looking forward to the next one. 🙏🏻

I'll certainly will be getting a decant.
You forgot the Epic Woman is also created by Cecile Zarokian!
Yeah true but I was only speaking about the latest one which came out just before this! 😀
I've been waiting for this one so bad..I love dark and sexy..and Cecile is awesome
Castoreum definitely competing with the Assamese oud. Enjoy it with the patchouli though patchouli should be more pronounced in my opinion
I feel that im not into it because of the notes....and its too expensive!!!! Thanks for the video!!
Could this be compared to some of the Beaufort' s creations ? I hope Amouage did that really strong, interesting, different.... cause the last 4 - 5 perfumes/ before this one/ didn't attract my attention 😒 the last ones are like " mass market"
Great house, I love everything they do but this sounds too dark for me. I'll still smell but the notes sound too intense.
I don't really like animalic musky perfumes but I love woody ouds. I'm not sure this will work for me also it's priced very high.
Only watching this because you're not wearing a hat, looking great dude! Snappy haircut. Prefer this look.
I'm so excited for this. I hear from folks this is going to put Amouage back on the map with their releases similar to their past releases since the changeover. I hope so.
Love Amouage. Think you should go 'hatless' more often.
First one is Epic Woman. This is the third for Cecile
I read that she had full freedom to create this, including no budget. I am guessing the 50ml is definitely due to the prices of the ingredients, aa you touched on. I only want 100ml bottles as well but may have to make an exception.
Sounds mysterious and well put together but also way too early to drop 300 on for a 50ml.
I hereby k/night Silver Oud as 'THE BLACK BEAST' - September 11, 2021 @ 3:42 AM
on my wishlist for x mas
Enjoy your fragrance reviews - and I'm so glad you removed your hat! I always wondered what you looked like w/o it - very handsome and much better looking. Keep being you!
This is like dialed-up By The Fireplace
Black beast? Silver Beast? Silver Surfer?
Are sample sizes available for sale ?
I'm unaware but most likely in the future they will go on sale yes.
Pls need new top oud
With all respect: You look very handsome without your hat.
Don't spay then immediately go out because the first notes that hit you is like a toilet everybody's been to but never flushed but gets better when it dries off
I think I might skip this. I don't like the sound of the dark oud.
Very dark and deep yes but wearable. My wife actually likes it!
Man this sounds really good, really good. So is it actually part of the opus collection officially or just in that bottle style? I forget the other Amouage scent Cecile did 🤔 epic I think was the one.
I think it's in the same line as Rose Incense is
SOTD: Instant Crush by Mancera ~ because Sebastian took his hat off...
Does it last long ??
With Amouage you can always be certain that they last 6+ hours at minimum, especially the library collection.
Just like interlude vintage bottle ( on my skin) all day long, I don’t know how the new interlude batch smells like, that’s way I bought 2 bottles of silver oud so POWERFUL 👍😎😎
Sounds hard to wear. Material was a difficult wear too
I believe I cannot use it here in the Caribbean ☀️🌡🔥
Perhaps not maybe too dark?
i like smoky and dark fragrances but not 300$ for 50mil like.
And for $305 for 50ml I'd expect a whole lot more naturals. The bottle has to cost more than the materials.
This house is totally worth it.
I only wear dark fragrances when it's dark out.
I think she did 3 for Amouage.
Yes she’s done 3, 1 from a long time ago I was referring to the first one she did this year, Material! 😀
I'm glad I'm not into smoky fragrances, I can't afford all these Amouage fragrances :D
Bro, you only need a couple of their fragrances and you are set for life. They are truly the best with the highest concentration.
This has my name written all over it
Too dark? No such thing sir, especially coming into the fall and Halloween season. Dark and mysterious is great
Ooh this sounds too dark for me.
Anytime I see "essence" I immediately think purely synthetic accord. Virginia Cedar essence? Come on. Synthetic Virginia cedarwood?
$305 for 50 ml, pass for me.
Love the hatless head today, Sebastian. So handsome.
Right?!? Didn't know he was so handsome till he took that hat off!
Amouage should stay with his amazing bottles. Like this also the presentation is losing his kick
Dear Amouage, please give us 100ml…….
OOH.
Wich perfume very very very very longlast super super longlast
I absolutely HATE this bottle design. I like the normal Amoauge bottles waaaay more. This looks like a cheap looking Comme Des Garçon bottle
🌹
👀
This is right down Eugenes alley. Wouldn’t you say?
@@seunbejide4475 it would certainly look that way, he likes zarokian too 😉
I must admit, I'm intrigued by this too
This bottle looks awful in my opinion.. they have so many nice flankers, why did they drop that
👍👍👍👍
