Oud Bleu Intense
Cardamom and nutmeg open the composition with a dry, slightly creamy spice — neither sharp nor warm-sweet, more like the inside of a spice cabinet than a pastry.

By the editors · 2 min readCardamom and nutmeg open the composition with a dry, slightly creamy spice — neither sharp nor warm-sweet, more like the inside of a spice cabinet than a pastry. The opening is brief and quiet.
The heart is resin-led from the first minutes: myrrh's bitter-medicinal hum, olibanum's smoky-cool incense, and labdanum's sticky-leathery sweetness, with amber binding them. There is no floral or fruit content to soften the resins.
The base deepens the resin profile with benzoin, opoponax, and styrax — sweetened, almost balsamic, slightly burnt. Despite the name, no oud is listed; the scent reads as a dense incense-amber rather than an oud composition. The overall character is a resinous, cool-weather oriental — long-lasting, projecting moderately, and best suited to evenings.
