Got the oil. Never sampled the original but reading comments on Fragrantica and elsewhere lead me to believe this is pretty close. I have many oud fragrances (The Night, Russian Oud, etc.) and this really isn’t like any of them. I now understand what people described as animalic and barnyard but that doesn’t quite describe it. It’s very unique and possibly alienating but I do like it. Just sampling it now so can’t speak for dry down or longevity.
(Belongs To The Olfactory Notes Family Similar to Pur Oud - Louis Vuitton®)
This is a woody spicy fragrance for men and women.

My preferred fragrance lately...
I never smelt the original from Penhaligon's, but I smelt other alternative from other fragrances oils companies. I like Perfume Parlour proposal. It smells smoky and a bit sweet for some hours, I like the smell a lot. It tends to turn on the sweet side after some hours, but the smell is still good.

Just perfect
I find it better than the original because the PP is directly in the bottom of the perfume with a 90% similarity (I own the original)

Absolutely Amazing
I discovered the original scent (Kilian Smoking Hot) in a large dept. store and instantly fell in love with it. I've been waiting for PP to release this and they have hit the nail bang on the head with this one. It is identical to the original. Smells amazing and lasts for ages. I can still smell it on my clothes the next day. Only a very small amount needed for maximum effects. I'm using the 60ml Extrait. 10/10 PP.

A sweet hybrid
This is lovely and sweet, quite juicy as well. To my nose it's like a hybrid of Instant Crush and Erba Pura. It's just seems to work without leaning too feminine. This is now my 24th or 25th extrait bottle from P.P. I just wish the delivery was quicker.
