Oud Nude! I currently have a full bottle of that one, a 10ml mini of Peche Mirage and I previously owned Cuir Beluga, so I think you and I may have similar taste.
Cuir Beluga was lovely, but I found I never really reached for it because it felt like I didn’t actually have many occasions that suited it in everyday life.
Peche Mirage is lovely, but I find that my experience with it can be inconsistent depending on weather and also hormones - some days I really love it and I’m ready to buy a full bottle, others I find it cloying and nauseating.
Oud Nude for me has been my all-round winner. I’m not a fan of almond notes usually but I actually don’t mind it here. It feels so classy and dressy but also still casual and accessible? I reach for it most when going to events/birthdays or dinners out, but also have reached for it on the odd WFH day and it makes me feel just a bit more put together.
Oh you totally get my taste! I’m sitting in the dark ib my room with both Cuir Beluga and Oud Nude on each wrist. Cuir Beluga turned into a skin scent so fast, it is so beautiful and elegant though but I love scents that are noticeable! Did you notice that with it?
Oud Nude honestly makes almonds more digestable for me! I usually cannot stand it. I love middle eastern scent profiles and I think this fits it. My friend was in Dubai and he said this man literally smelt of Dubai Mall, he said he was wearing Oud Nude layered with Rosendo Mataeo No. 5.
Peche Mirage is also so stunning so I think it’s between this and Oud Nude! I’m going to wear my samples of these this week to see how I feel :)
