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.

About

Oud Malinau opens with cardamom and mimosa, a spicy and softly floral start. The heart combines raspberry, cinnamon and beeswax, which adds a fruity, spiced and honeyed sweetness. The base is oud, pepper, benzoin, pink pepper and Siam, resinous and warm. Dmitry Bortnikoff is the perfumer. It is a rich, opulent oud scent that mixes spice, fruit and balsamic depth.
