The Scoop

With Notorious Oud, D.S. & Durga pay tribute to one of the greatest legends to ever emerge from their home borough of Brooklyn- Christopher Wallace, better known as The Notorious B.I.G. But if you think the inspiration is merely surface level, you're dead wrong- like the charming, rough-edged, impossibly clever rhymes of Frank White himself, Notorious Oud showcases a versatile and often misunderstood fragrant ingredient with the type of irreverent panache that leaves competitors sputtering like the Madd Rapper.

Biggie references aside, how does Notorious Oud actually smell? Start with the oud itself, a rich Indonesian specimen ("smell the Indonesia, " as the great man once rapped) with a robust balance of smoky, earthy, and animalic tones. Afghani saffron and white galbanum enhance the green, spicy energy, while a lush Bulgarian rose feels as smooth and suave as Big Poppa. We could go on, but we'll leave you instead with one last Biggie quote to capture how we feel about Notorious Oud: "Stay far from timid/only make moves when your heart's in it/and live the phrase sky's the limit..."

Here's what other people are saying about Notorious Oud...

I have full bottles of DS and Durga: Burning Barbershop, Cowboy Grass, Mississippi Medicine. All three sing of genius creativity and quality ingredients. Notorious Oud gives me that same high quality feel of being from the same ilk, however what's missing is creativity. When I hear the word notorious, one of the things that immediately comes to mind is crack cocaine, something of great impact and actually worthy of notoriety. Unfortunately for this one, it's all around the world, same song (same ol' song). After sampling this I find it to be just the same boring oud, rose, saffron mashup. If you're going to christen your product "Notorious" anything, it better have more of an impact than a generic, starter kit, office-safe, western oud.

I am a very big fan of D.S. and Durga, believing they have one of the best lines of cologne for men. I was expecting to be enamored by this scent yet I was a bit confused with the aroma. I believe this company shot for the stars with this one and didn't quite make it. However! I will always love D.S. and Durga.

Great oud fragrance--love it. It doesn't smell synthetic and I pick up the saffron, rose and animalics. Sillage is very nice, not enormous like a Montale, but also not wimpy by any means. I would tie this with Tauer's L'Oudh for fantastic takes on oud (by Westerners ;)
