Aoud Black Candy
Aoud Black Candy by Mancera is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with licorice and mint, moves into rose and amber and dries down to oud and white musk. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Licorice Sweet anise with a dark, salty edge. Divisive and distinctive.
- Mint Cold and tingly. Great in small doses, toothpaste in large ones.
Heart
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
Dry-down
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
