Oud 1001
Fragrance notes
Character
Oud 1001 opens with a sharp citrus flash that feels bright against the heavy woods waiting underneath. Raspberry adds a tart edge to the lemon and lime, while pink pepper and saffron give the entrance a dry, metallic heat. The oud here is dense and resinous, supported by patchouli and cypriol that push the scent toward a dark, earthy foundation. Vanilla and tonka bean soften the edges without making the blend sugary. Castoreum and benzoin add a leathery, balsamic depth that feels more suited to a heavy coat than a light jacket.
The floral heart stays quiet beneath the wood and amber, with rose and jasmine adding a faint powdery lift. White musk and sandalwood smooth the texture so the sharper notes do not scratch. Styrax and gurjan balsam create a warm, sticky resin quality that clings to fabric and skin in equal measure. It suits someone who enjoys a fragrance that feels rooted in resin and wood, with enough citrus to keep the opening lively. The sweetness is present but held in check by cedar and the bitter pull of oud. A cold morning walk through damp streets or a heated room filled with old furniture captures the mood
