WK KoO is a great scent, more on the sweet side and not what one would expect from a oud scent. Still amazing.

The Club (TTFFC) Tobacco Oud- this one smells great. Not sure if its still available, but came in a 2oz tub with matching A/S.

RR Tuscan Oud- strong sweet scent. One of the best RR scents IMO.

PAA Sangre De Drago- performance on this one is lacking a bit IMO, but the scent is amazing. Highly reccomend the aftershave.

Being a big fan of Oud and having a nice collection of real Oud based colognes and Altair's I'm still waiting for a Oud scented soap that uses real Oud in it and not a synthetic replica of the Agarwood sap. I know that high quality Laotian Oud it's one of the most expensive ingredients in the world and more expensive than Gold per ounce but there are some agarwood trees being grown in India for example that is more reasonable to buy and Oud is so powerful in its natural state you'd only need to use a little and then add other scents as top and middle notes as the Oud would still come out nicely as a basenote.

King of Oud is pleasant and sweet but the synthetic Oud is used for sure. Same goes for Stirling Agar , AOS Oud and Tuscan Oud to name a few I've tried.
Not trying to be a fragrance snob but I believe it can be done and still be somewhat sensibly priced. Just had this discussion with some of my Shaving brothers on this subject last week. So had to put my 2 cents in for whatever that is worth.

wasn't Agarwood by Manuel Garcia (Eufros) made with real Oud?

Really appreciate these points. I have kind of oud... it’s nice but I don’t get too much out of it. I also find it to be a bit powdery in the scent. I love almost everything from Wholly Kaw but I’m looking more for a really good Oud scent myself. If you know of one please keep me in mind

I have SV Tundra Artica and LPL Oud - Santal.

Anyone else? They are not alike. May I ask which is more Oud-y?

I'll find out one day when I get in a big city I suppose. Love both soaps, just curious. Thanks!

CRSW Olfactory Hue is a nice one.
