A closer look at The House Of Oud Dates Delight EDP
The House Of Oud is the house behind Dates Delight EDP. It comes as Eau de Parfum.
When in the day to wear Dates Delight
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its sweet side feels cosy and rich after dark.
Longevity on skin
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 Parfums De Marly Oajan and Xerjoff Blends Tony Iommi Monkey Special Edp 100Ml. Base notes like honey and sugar are the part that stays longest on the skin.
The House Of Oud perfumes worth knowing
The house has 28 perfumes here, led by What About Pop, Keep Glazed and Almond Harmony.
Price and value
The usual price in Europe is about €230. That puts it on the expensive side. It costs more than Parfums De Marly Oajan and Xerjoff Blends Tony Iommi Monkey Special Edp 100Ml.
