At the 2010 Sniffapalooza Fall Ball we were introduced to Oud For Highness 75 which was made for King Hussein of Jordan. 2009 seemed to have a weekly release of an oud centric fragrance. 2010 has seen that release pattern return to more normal levels. Which is good because if Oud For Highness 75 came out a year earlier I think I might have missed some of its quite beautiful subtleties.
