Bois de Oud
Fragrance notes
Character
A narrow stone courtyard sits quiet under a dark sky. Cool air moves between the buildings and carries the scent of bergamot and coriander through the space. Cedar and patchouli rest against the walls, heavy and grounding. Oud sits at the center of it all, resinous and deep, shaping the atmosphere without overwhelming the smaller details. The citrus stays bright against the wood, and the spice gives the air a clean edge. Everything feels deliberate, as if the materials were placed here to match the stillness of the evening.
The fragrance feels composed and steady. The woods are prominent, supported by a gentle bitterness from the herbs and a soft lift from the citrus. It does not lean sweet or loud. The patchouli adds a damp earth quality that pairs well with the dry cedar, while the oud provides a smooth, slightly animal warmth. There is a refined clarity to the blend, as though the ingredients were chosen for their ability to coexist without competing.
Someone who enjoys resinous woods and crisp spice will find comfort here. It fits a night walk through a quiet city or a seated conversation outdoors when the air turns cool. The blend feels at home in the months when the weather shifts between mild and cold, offering a companion that matches the pace of those evenings.
