Oud Noir
Fragrance notes
Character
Oud Noir is not a gentle introduction to oud. The resin hits hard and stays heavy, and the labdanum adds a thick amber weight that can feel flat if you prefer airy compositions. This is a dense, balsamic scent that demands patience from the wearer.
The mandarin orange offers a bright, fleeting spark against the dark rose heart. That floral note is deep and red, not fresh or dewy, blending into the earthy patchouli and musk below. It creates a warm, spicy atmosphere that feels suited to a dimly lit room or a heavy coat on a cool evening. The wood is prominent, leaning into a rich, slightly medicinal agarwood profile that defines the entire experience.
It suits someone who enjoys traditional, heavy Middle Eastern styles and wants a fragrance that feels grounded and serious. Those who find heavy resins cloying or who prefer clean, soapy finishes will likely find it overwhelming. The scent settles into a skin-close mix of oud and musk.
