Perfumer's Insight
“The quintessential scent of the Middle East, our classic Aoud pays homage to the traditional practices of a culture that hold scent dear to its heart. Perfumer Roja Dove spent three years in the Middle East working closely with this legendary material to properly understand its complex nature. With this creation, precious Rose de Mai and Saffron create a beautiful foundation for Oud Wood to take centre stage, whilst a spicy and incredibly sensual base allow its beauty to resonate.” - ROJA DOVE.
