Versace

Pour Homme Oud Noir

EDP2013

“Versace opens the spice cabinet — saffron, oud, leather, and some ambition.”

Versace Pour Homme Oud Noir EDP
warm spicy
oud
fresh spicy

A spicy-oud Versace release — the 2013 Pour Homme Oud Noir flanker, a saffron take on the Versace Pour Homme structure. Black pepper at the top, a saffron heart, settling on an oud-patchouli drydown. A fall and winter evening fragrance.

The take

What works

  • ●Saffron-oud-leather combo delivers genuine oriental depth at designer pricing
  • ●More complex and interesting than most Versace flankers
  • ●Strong cold-weather evening performance

Trade-offs

  • ●The oud note is approachable but lacks the authenticity of dedicated oud fragrances
  • ●Strictly cold-weather only
