Very strong musky oud
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very strong unisex scent with powerful musky, smoky, bold tones. It does take a while for it to settle down and lasts the whole day.
The packaging and bottle both look very impressive and would look beautiful on any dressing table.

A luxurious, versatile oud fragrance with elegant packaging and perfect projection.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My girlfriend has been wearing GUERLAIN Absolus Allegoria Oud Essentiel, and I can’t get enough of it. The scent is captivating—rich oud with a warm, woody depth, balanced by subtle floral notes. It’s bold yet elegant, making it perfect for any occasion, whether casual or formal.
The projection is just right—her presence is felt with a soft, luxurious trail without being overpowering. The versatility of this fragrance is impressive—it transitions effortlessly from day to night, adding a touch of sophistication to any moment.
The bottle itself is beautifully designed, with sleek lines and gold accents that give it a refined, timeless look. Even the packaging box is a treat—elegantly crafted with luxurious details that make it feel like a truly special gift. Everything about this fragrance, from the scent to the presentation, is simply stunning.

Musky, woodland, fresh
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Musky, woodland, fresh. Strong but once settled onto skin smells much softer and the scent lasts ages! The packaging is really really beautiful.

Lovely Perfume
It’s leathery, smoky but somewhat lil sweet and floral at the dry down. Overall I love it but would have loved if it was all leathery and smoky throughout.

Clean, long lasting unisex perfume
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a beautiful bottle! Guerlain are showing their commitment to the protection of the bee by incorporating a honeycomb design on the bottle and a beautiful bee on the cap and label. I hope you can see from my photo how fine the spray is as it leaves the bottle, it produces a very fine mist, which is perfect for application! This is an eau de Parfum and this reflects the intensity of the perfume, a couple of spritz and you’re good for the day! I love oud and leather so this perfume with a hint of rose is perfect for me. I like different perfumes for different seasons and this is my new autumn/winter choice 🐝

Very Smoky!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fragrance comes in a beautiful large glass bottle embellished with golden mesh and top. The fragrance itself appears to be quite masculine even though it is supposed to be unisex. It has quite an overpowering smoky scent, which on first application, makes me smell like I’ve been to a BBQ or a bonfire. It is long lasting but settles throughout the day to become more subtle. I think it does take some getting used to.

Wow
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The longevity of Oud Essentiel is impressive. A few sprays last well into the day, with the scent evolving beautifully over time. The dry down reveals more of its leathery, amber undertones, which adds warmth and depth to the fragrance. It’s ideal for cooler weather or evening wear, but its balanced nature could work in various settings.
In terms of sillage, it has a moderate to strong presence without being overpowering, which makes it suitable for both formal and intimate occasions. The craftsmanship of Guerlain is evident in the composition; each note is perfectly blended to create a harmonious and luxurious experience.
Final Thoughts: Oud Essentiel is perfect for those who enjoy woody, oriental fragrances but prefer a smoother, less pungent oud. It’s elegant, versatile, and wears beautifully on the skin. A must-try for anyone looking to explore oud in a refined, wearable way.
