Ard Al Zaafaran Dirham Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. Dirham Oud opens with Citrus, Bergamot, and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Rose, and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Woody. Ard Al Zaafaran's Dirham Oud carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Dirham Oud truly divides opinion. Some rave about its unique raspberry-oud blend and incredible value, while others find it a headache-inducing assault of cheap oud. Approach with caution, but if it hits right, it's a steal.

About

Dirham Oud kicks off with a bright, zesty burst of citrus and raspberry, a surprisingly juicy opening for an oud. Quickly, it deepens into a woody heart, where creamy sandalwood meets soft lavender and a hint of rose. The base is all about the woody oud, tempered by a powdery, ambery warmth that prevents it from being overly harsh. It's an intriguing dance between fresh fruitiness and traditional oriental depth.
