Oud Luban Extrait
Fragrance notes
Character
Oud Luban Extrait opens with a bright citrus flash. Orange and blood orange provide a juicy, realistic fruit presence that feels immediate and cheerful. Frankincense and elemi resin sit beside the fruit, adding a dry, pine-like edge that keeps the opening from becoming a simple gourmand treat. The resins introduce a clean, slightly medicinal sharpness that cuts through the sweetness of the citrus.
The heart settles into a deep, resinous core. Oud provides a woody, slightly animalic foundation that feels natural rather than polished. Opoponax and benzoin add a heavy, balsamic sweetness that leans into the amber accord, while patchouli contributes an earthy, dark green depth. The fragrance feels warm and aromatic, with the resins and oud creating a thick, enveloping texture that is rich without becoming cloying.
This extrait carries a distinct, spiritual weight suitable for quiet, reflective moments. It fits well during cooler evenings when the air is crisp, allowing the resins and citrus to remain distinct. Wear it when you want a scent that feels grounded and traditional, offering a direct connection to natural materials and classic perfumery ingredients.
