Scent Depot Score™

Very good

Strong category choiceExpect an initially green-citrus opening (bergamot + violet leaf + a coriander/citronella-like lift) that moves into a floral heart (rose, lily-of-the-valley) with a faint peppery lift, then settles toward a warm, amber-vanilla and woody base with patchouli/oakmoss and occasional oud/resinous undertones. Retail pages and a verified buyer note both the pronounced top-green and a persistent warm base, so evolution across stages is part of the product's character. (Guidance sources cited below.)

More Information
Key strengths
  • Layered composition with clear green top, floral heart, and warm amber/vanilla base—multiple vendor descriptions corroborate a noticeable evolution.
  • Attractive retail presentation and unisex positioning make it a straightforward gift option at modest price points.
  • Several vendor descriptions and at least one verified buyer report suggest good presence and perceived longevity for the price class.
Things to know
  • You prefer immediately bright, green openings that evolve to warmer bases — if you dislike amber/oud/vanilla weight, this may not be the best pick. (
  • You need a guaranteed light sillage for close offices — listed presence suggests stronger projection unless applied sparingly. (
  • You prefer fragrances with broad independent editorial coverage prior to buying — independent reviews are limited; sample testing is recommended. (

Season Profile

SEASONS
Season Breakdown
AutumnVery Good7.8/10
Customer interpretation
Warm amber/vanilla and the woody-oud base combine with green-floral heart to suit crisp autumn days and evenings; retailer descriptions emphasizing amber/patchouli bases support this suitability. (ph)
WinterVery Good7.4/10
Customer interpretation
The warm base and resinous/oud undertones provide good lift in colder weather; sellers list amber and base woods that typically perform well in winter. (

Customer interpretation
The green-citrus opening and floral heart make spring a reasonable fit for daytime wear, though the warm base tempers pure spring freshness. (
SummerBelow Average4.5/10

If you like green-tinged chypre-amber blends with a warm amber/oud foundation and want a reasonably priced unisex EDP with clear top-to-base evolution, London Oud No 4 is a defensible buy — but because independent, in-depth community sampling is limited and the profile contains potentially polarizing oud/amber weight, sampling before committing to a full bottle is recommended for cautious buyers. (Guidance sources listed below.)
