Oud - EDP Aftershave for Men - Patchouli & Oud Fragrance 100ml | Eau de Parfum for Men, Woody Fresh Scent, Cardamom, Orange, Honey, Long Lasting, Gift for Him, Everyday Wear

I bought my first Milton Lloyd fragrances a few years ago and they are all great. They project excellently and last for ages ( I can still smell them the next day ) I admit my only reservation was being unable to see the liquid inside the bottle ( which is still true of some of the original 50ml bottles ) I was delighted to see that, with many of the new " Colour Me " range, this has been addressed so it is easier to see how much " juice " is left in the bottle - and how far each application goes .... so congratulations to Milton Lloyd for addressing this issue. The spray nozzles seem to be an improvement too as each bottle is lasting a lot longer than the old type. This particular Eau De Toilette is excellent. The orange flower is the first note that hits me, followed by the sweetness of the honey and the overiding bass note is the oud which is gorgeous. A very spicy, oriental smell which is totally infectious. At these prices it is well worth having in your collection. It is quite unusual so it may not be to everyone's liking but I love it. I just hope they repackage their " The Man Silver " which is still probably my favourite scent in their range.

I like aftershaves with Oudh and thought I would try the 50ml bottle after having used and liking the “Victor” number 9 by perfumers choice from the other line of fragrances from Milton Lloyd (not Oudh). I don’t know what creed smells like but I like Victor for what it is in its own right, so I thought I would give this one a go. It does have a strange chemical kind of smell when you first put it on. Hard to describe but it has an underlying strange scent that reminds me of a leather scented spray car air freshener I used in my car by chemical guys. It smells fine in my car but this aftershave spray has that similar scent when it first goes on and does seem a little odd. In saying that, this element seems to go quite quickly and after about 20 mins or so you are left with a pleasant Oudh fragrance coming through and it lasts a long time, I’d say at least 6 hours, but like any scent, you get used to it after a while and may feel it doesn’t last as long but I’d say it definitely still smells good for a long enough time for any fragrance. I have no idea (or likely to ever know at the price of it) whether or not it smells anything like Tom Ford, but for £5 it is pleasant enough (once you get over that initial slightly odd hurdle when you put it on) and I’d say what have you got to lose for only £5, give it a try. I would buy again, likely the 50ml EDT again at £5, as it doesn’t make any sense to buy the 83ml EDP at £12 when the EDT lasts as long as it does and has a good presence, but I haven’t compared the two to really know the differences, just my opinion.

As I have said elsewhere I am a Milton Lloyd fanboy. I think the value you get on nearly all of their offerings is great and I personally really like the Colour Me Gold, Essentials number 3 style, but I like most of their range. I noticed a few really negative reviews on this one, but I thought I'd give it a try anyway at the price and there are many good reviews too. My initial impression was as many others have had. It smells quite odd, almost medicinal and certainly not something I would normally choose with its opening. After it dies down a bit, it still has a slightly strange character to me. It's like a clean smell, but more on the disinfectant scale than a nice fragrance in my mind. Maybe this is one of those things in life where it depends on your owe personal genetics as to whether it smells nice or not. I don't find it repulsive as some have, but it certainly isn't something I would buy again as there are many better fragrances to choose from. If you haven't tried Milton Lloyd before, I'd say skip this for now and choose one of the Essentials range to start with, as all four of those are really nice (especially No 3 in my case). Then if you feel like experimenting further, maybe give this a whirl and see if it appeals, just be aware that it's a bit of a Marmite job with other people though!

Not a fan. Smells like bin juice

I love these and they are great value for money

Lovely smell

Not a bad little Arabian Oud. Inspired by the musk and sandalwood tones of the oil-rich Emirates, this Oud by Milton-Lloyd transports you to the Dubai metropolis. Ok, the fragrance is not as complex as most other Ouds available by the designer brands, but it has a lasting musk scent that lingers for a few hours after application and is quite distinct from your traditional aftershaves. If you're looking for something a little different, are thinking of buying a more expensive Oud and are not sure whether you could 'pull it off', give this product a shot. At this price, what have you got to lose?
