The Other Side of Oud

by Maurice Roucel , Pierre-Constantin Guéros

Atkinsons The Other Side of Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Maurice Roucel and Pierre-Constantin Guéros. The Other Side of Oud opens with Ginger, Cardamom, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Coffee and Vanilla. Atkinsons's The Other Side of Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

A truly divisive scent: some find this a luxurious, cozy, coffee-dusted spice bomb perfect for cooler evenings, while others call it cheap, bland, or a pure "cinnamon blast." Expect prominent spice and gourmand notes, with the oud playing a subtle supporting role.

About

The Other Side of Oud opens with a vibrant, fiery burst of warm spices, led by ginger, cardamom, and cinnamon, creating an immediate, invigorating warmth. This morphs into a rich, roasted coffee heart, adding a gourmand depth that's both comforting and slightly bitter. The base settles into a smooth, creamy vanilla, intertwining with a non-animalic oud that provides a woody backbone without dominating, resulting in a cozy, sophisticated blend.
