Royal Bengal from FO. This is one wild, feral oud. This is the first Bengal oil I ever tried and boy is it different. This has some serious sinensis type sourness along with a unique animalic Hindi barn base. There are really no sweet notes that I can detect. Adam calls it Royal Bengal but I call this Bengal Tiger. Powerful stuff in both scent and longevity.
I would say that if you are an experienced afficionado of the more animalic ouds, there will be nothing like this in your collection. If you are trying to get your feet wet in this type of genre, this one is more for down the line and more well aged hindis with the barn notes tamed by time would be a better bet. On that front, I am very curious to see what a few years does for this oil.
