From your scent profile
Fragrance Du Bois Rude Oud Elixir is a unisex scent that sets the fruity sweetness of raspberry and blackcurrant against the woody weight of oud and vetiver.
Skunky's take: Nightlife loves this one, or so the votes say.
How does it perform?
From 16 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
People close to you notice, nobody gets overwhelmed.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

OrientalWhat does Rude Oud Elixir smell like?
It opens with raspberry, blackcurrant, rose and peach, fruity and floral with a sweet edge. The heart of geranium, saffron, violet and cypriol adds spicy, green and smoky tones. The base settles on oud, vetiver, vanilla and amber, with oriental, leathery and animal shades in the mix.
Longevity and sillage are rated good, and most voters score both highly. It is rich enough to suit cooler weather and evenings. Few votes have been cast so far, so this picture is still tentative.
