Olfactive Profile:

Oud is rich, complex, and extremely long-lasting. Warm amber tones combine with spicy, animalic, and leather qualities, resulting in a sensual, woody, and slightly musky scent.

Facts:

Oud, also known as agarwood or aloeswood, is obtained from the Aquilaria tree, native to Southeast Asia, India, and Bangladesh. When the Aquilaria tree becomes infected with a certain type of mold, it produces a resinous substance that changes the composition of the wood and gives it a distinctive aroma.
