Notes

Oud perfumes

Oud smells woody, resinous, and sometimes smoky. In many Indian and Gulf inspired blends it is rounded with rose, saffron, and amber.

Personality
It suits someone who wants presence. Not for a quiet desk day unless the rest of the formula is kept light.
When to wear
Evening and winter. Heat can push oud forward, so a lighter spray is often enough outdoors in summer.
Occasions
Weddings, festive evenings, and formal dinners. A common gifting choice when the brief is rich and serious.
In a formula
Oud usually lives in the heart or base. It is a long note. It does not vanish with the first hour.

Pairs well with woody, amber, floral.
