About Oud in Perfumery

Oud belongs to the woody family and functions as a base note — the lasting foundation that anchors a composition and lingers longest on the skin. The foundation — deep and lasting. Rooted in the rich traditions of Middle Eastern perfumery, it is prized for its depth and authenticity.
