Oud Interlude
Fragrance notes
Character
Oud Interlude by Fanette opens with lemon and bergamot that feel bright and immediate. The citrus is clean and direct, giving the first moments a clear, sunny character that does not lean into sweetness. Orange follows in the heart and rounds out the opening with a softer, juicier tone that bridges the top notes toward the woodier base.
Cedar and oud form the foundation and shift the fragrance into a drier, more grounded space. The cedar adds a dry, pencil-sharpening woodiness, while the oud contributes a resinous, slightly animalic depth that feels natural rather than polished. Together they create a woody accord that sits firmly beneath the citrus and keeps the overall composition from feeling light or fleeting.
The fragrance suits warmer days across spring, summer, and fall, when a fresh citrus opening paired with dry woods feels appropriate for daytime wear. It works for anyone who enjoys aromatic woods without heavy spice or sugar. The limitation is that the citrus and oud do not blend into a seamless whole, and the transition between the bright top and the dry base can feel abrupt.
