Agarwood (oud) underneath everything, the way a bass line sits under a song. The top is brighter than the reputation suggests, palisander rosewood, lavender, apple and cinnamon, more orchard than incense. Rose, cedar and lily-of-the-valley soften the middle. Then the base opens up, agarwood (oud) and sandalwood wrapped in amber, vanilla and musk, rich enough to read across a room. For the collector who already owns three ouds and wants a fourth that behaves. Cold-weather evenings. Fills a room early, then holds warm against the skin across an 8-10 hour wear. Hand-poured in small batches in Richardson, TX as an Extrait de Parfum with 30% fragrance oils versus the 15-20% typical of an Eau de Parfum, so a little goes a long way. Reach for it on gala nights, boardroom power moves, and any evening that calls for polish. Made for our Fall selection.
