Alyssa Ashley Oud Pour Elle is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Luca Maffei. Oud Pour Elle opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Plum, and settles into a heart of Rose, Heliotrope, Myrrh, and Tea. Alyssa Ashley's Oud Pour Elle carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A fascinating paradox, Oud Pour Elle is a surprisingly gentle introduction to oud - a universally appealing scent that punches well above its weight for the price. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair for some, but generally wins over with its charming complexity.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its moderate sillage and gentle oud accord make it suitable for office wear, as many users highlight its 'wearable' nature in enclosed spaces. The warm, subtle character also makes it excellent for dates, though it might be too understated for truly formal events.

About

Opens with a bright, zesty burst of lemon and bergamot, quickly softened by the juicy sweetness of plum. The heart unfolds into a rich tapestry of powdery rose and deep, balsamic myrrh, underpinned by an intriguing black tea note. The dry down introduces a mellow, woody oud, softened by creamy sandalwood and a hint of musk, creating a warm and inviting aura.
