Bortnikoff Oud Sinharaja is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Dmitry Bortnikoff. Oud Sinharaja opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Jasmin Sambac, Magnolia, and Frangipani, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Oud, and Labdanum. Bortnikoff's Oud Sinharaja carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This is a genuinely beautiful, if divisive, tropical floral oud. While some crave a stronger oud punch, most find this a radiant, high-quality journey to an exotic, humid paradise. It's not a beast mode scent, but it's utterly captivating.

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.

About

Opens with a bright, uplifting burst of bergamot and grapefruit, gently spiced with cardamom. This soon gives way to a lush, creamy heart dominated by tropical frangipani and magnolia, intertwined with sweet jasmine sambac. The base unfolds with a subtle, non-animalic oud, complemented by warm labdanum and grounding cedar, lending a soft, woody depth to the exotic florals.
