✨ The Story of Original Oud

Original Oud is not a literal interpretation, but an imaginative portrait inspired by the contrasts of light and shadow in a dense forest. The scent unfolds like a journey through a Laotian canopy where sunbeams pierce the leaves, revealing hidden beauty. The opening is instantly bright and lively, with the vivacious zest of Green Cardamom and the aromatic sparkle of Bourbon Geranium. This freshness quickly deepens into a sophisticated heart where a luxurious Leather accord meets the rich, resinous warmth of Gurjum Balsam, contrasted by the powdery, elegant touch of Iris. This interplay captures the complexity of opposing elements. The final descent anchors the composition in noble, creamy woods -Laotian Oud providing its depth, balanced by smooth Sandalwood and shimmering White Woods.

How to use for Best Results:

For a long-lasting fragrance experience, spritz your perfume onto your pulse points. These are areas where your body heat naturally diffuses scent – think wrists, inner elbows, neck (below the hairline), and even behind the knees. Hold the perfume 4-6 inches away and give yourself 1-2 sprays per pulse point. Remember, a little goes a long way, so you can always add more later if needed.
