About Acqua Di Parma Oud & Spice EDP
Acqua Di Parma is the house behind Oud & Spice EDP. It comes as Eau de Parfum.
Who will like it
The strongest accord is warm spicy (100%), followed by oud and rose. You will probably like it if you enjoy warm spicy and oud smells and notes like cloves and agarwood (oud). Less obvious notes include bergamot, cinnamon and patchouli. Perfume fans rate it 3.87 out of 5.
For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its warm spicy side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Creed Travel Case is a lighter match.
Oud & Spice longevity
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. It lasts about as long as Gisada Ambassador Intense and Creed Travel Case. Base notes like agarwood (oud) and labdanum are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Price and value
The usual price in Europe is about €216. That puts it on the expensive side. It costs more than Creed Travel Case and Atelier Des Ors Rose Omeyyade but less than Creed Aventus Absolu.
Acqua Di Parma perfumes worth knowing
