By the editors · 2 min readWith no top notes listed, the composition opens straight into freesia and may rose — soft, slightly dewy, neither sharp nor heady. The floral pairing reads quiet and watery rather than perfumey, with rose adding light jam underneath.
The base does most of the work: sandalwood creamy, ambroxan radiating that clean salty-warm glow, patchouli adding earthy depth, and vanilla rounding everything into smoothness. Despite the name, there's no actual oud in the pyramid — the patchouli and ambroxan are doing the heavy lifting.
The overall character is plush, slightly sweet, and modern-amber-leaning, with florals that fade into the woody-vanilla bed. Holds close after the first stretch.
