Bond No. 9 Good Oud Eau de Parfum Oud, reimagined with extraordinary complexity and depth. Good Oud by Bond No. 9 is a bold, deeply opulent oriental woody fragrance launched in 2025 and created by Miroslav Petkov — the same celebrated perfumer behind Oud Supreme — and one of the most ambitious and most complex fragrances in the entire Bond No. 9 collection. The name is a characteristically New York play on words: a nod to Gowanus, the Brooklyn neighbourhood undergoing one of the most extraordinary creative transformations in the city’s recent history, and a declaration of intent — this is not just oud. This is good oud. Built around sixteen ingredients across three phases, Good Oud is a fragrance of extraordinary ambition and extraordinary execution: a composition that takes the raw power of oud and frames it in a layered, resinous, deeply complex structure that reveals new facets with every hour of wear. It opens with a strikingly original combination of magnolia, osmanthus, cinnamon, sumac, bark, and cumin — warm, slightly spiced, and deeply aromatic. Osmanthus — the delicate Chinese flower with its unique apricot-leather character — and sumac — the tart, slightly fruity Middle Eastern spice — give the opening a complexity and a character that is genuinely unlike any other oud fragrance in the Bond No. 9 collection. The heart deepens with pomegranate, Peru balsam, myrrh, resin, and clary sage — a richly layered, deeply resinous accord of extraordinary beauty. Peru balsam — a warm, slightly vanilla-like, deeply balsamic resin from Central America — and myrrh — one of the most ancient and most sacred aromatic resins in the world — create a heart of rare, almost overwhelming opulence. The dry-down is the fragrance’s most magnificent achievement: wild berries, labdanum, vanilla bean, resin, oud, and patchouli — six base notes of extraordinary complementarity — creating a warm, dark, deeply resinous base of rare, enduring beauty. The oud is the base’s defining note: rich, slightly smoky, and deeply commanding, it is the ingredient that makes Good Oud feel simultaneously ancient and completely modern.
