A landmark niche oud built on potent Cambodian aoud softened by rose petals and Indonesian patchouli. Dark, medicinal and uncompromising, it defined Western oud perfumery.
Scent story
To me this is a desert night in a bottle — Cambodian aoud, dark and animalic and mandarin, sweet and juicy glowing against deep, smouldering warmth. Then Rose petals, soft and velvety and indonesian patchouli, dark and earthy bloom at the center, turning the whole thing softer and deeper. Underneath it all, musk, soft and skin-like hum low and steady, holding the composition together. Quietly magnetic — the kind of scent that turns heads without raising its voice. Not for beginners — beginners stay away.
