Agarwood
182 perfumes feature this note.
Gucci
Intense Oud
2016Intense Oud opens with theatrical contrast — pear and raspberry providing sweet fruit-forward brightness against frankincense, which arrives early as a resinous haze.
OudRoseLeatherPatchouli4.5 / 5· 1,837Orto Parisi
Stercus
2014Stercus opens with a jolt—bitter almond and anise collide in a way that feels almost medicinal, sharp and vaguely unsettling.
MuskyAlmondPowderyAldehydic4.0 / 5· 1,126O Boticário
Malbec Gold
2016Named after the dark Argentine grape, Malbec Gold from O Boticário deepens the house's popular Malbec line with an oud-and-resin-heavy oriental statement.
AmberOudLeatherPatchouli4.0 / 5· 516Goldfield & Banks
Silky Woods
2021Silky Woods is the headline fragrance of Goldfield & Banks' commitment to Australian botanicals — specifically agarwood sourced from Queensland, which the house claims is the first such use in commercial perfumery.
OudVanillaWoodyCinnamon3.9 / 5· 500Dior
Purple Oud
2018Purple Oud is François Demachy's entry in Dior's Collection Privée that proves oud doesn't require opacity.
OudSoft SpicyLeatherSweet4.0 / 5· 500Amouage
Opus XIII – Silver Oud
2021Silver Oud is Amouage's thirteenth Library Collection entry and among its most austere — a composition that asks oud to do the heavy lifting in conversation with a set of deliberately darkened, animalic accords.
OudAnimalicVanillaPatchouli3.8 / 5· 469Lattafa Perfumes
Qaa Ed Al Shabaab
2021Qaa Ed Al Shabaab — "leader of youth" — opens with a bold pairing of ylang-ylang and osmanthus, two florals that tend toward the sweet and slightly peachy.
OudAmberLeatherTobacco4.2 / 5· 442Xerjoff
Ceylon
2017Ceylon opens with honey and jasmine sambac—warm, slightly waxy, natural rather than synthetic—before bergamot adds enough brightness to prevent the sweetness from becoming heavy.
OudHoneyVanillaAmber4.2 / 5· 382Xerjoff
Soprano
2018Soprano opens with lychee and freesia—genuinely tropical in its first impression, the lychee's sweetness held in check by bergamot pulling it back toward the familiar.
RoseLeatherOudFloral3.9 / 5· 371Swiss Arabian
Zahra
Zahra — Arabic for flower — opens with the brightness of black currant pressed against green notes, a slightly tart and vegetal combination that grounds the subsequent floral phase before it arrives.
RoseOudMuskyFruity3.9 / 5· 357Swiss Arabian
Shaghaf Oud Azraq
2022The EDP iteration of Shaghaf Oud Azraq delivers the same honey-and-agarwood opening as its flanker sibling — thick, resinous, with the waxy sweetness of raw honey pressed against oud that has a slight barnyard quality before it settles.
OudHoneyAmberVanilla4.5 / 5· 328Lolita Lempicka

2012Illusions Noires Au Masculin is the 2001 Au Masculin recast in shadow.

OudRoseFloralWoody3.9 / 5· 286Swiss Arabian

OudRoseAmberWoody4.4 / 5· 273Montale
Aoud Amber Rose
2010Grapefruit and guaiac wood open the composition — bitter citrus over a smoky-sweet wood, an unusual pairing that sets up the rose to come.
OudRoseWoodyCitrus3.5 / 5· 261Phlur
Vanilla Skin
2023A modern oud-vanilla that opens with pink pepper crackling above a thin apple-water freshness — the pepper dries the fruit, lending a clean, minerally lift.

Aoud Red Flowers
2008Agarwood and rose together in the opening — direct, no preamble, the oud playing supporting role to the rose rather than the reverse.

OudLeatherRosePatchouli3.8 / 5· 184Bortnikoff
