Oud de Carthage

by Dominique Ropion , Claire Liégent

Boucheron Oud de Carthage is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Dominique Ropion and Claire Liégent. Oud de Carthage opens with Honey and Incense, and settles into a heart of Labdanum and Tonka Bean. Boucheron's Oud de Carthage carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

A truly luxurious blend, Oud de Carthage is a deep, warm amber-leather fragrance with an elegant touch of sweetness. While the 'oud' often takes a backseat, this Ropion creation delivers niche quality at a designer price point, making it a firm favourite for many, despite some finding it a bit too familiar.

With its strong projection and deep, sweet profile, this scent is best suited for dates and formal occasions where its luxurious character can shine. It's a bit too bold for a typical office setting, and definitely not one for the gym.

About

Upon first spray, you're wrapped in a sophisticated embrace of sweet honey and the gentle, smoky tendrils of incense. As it evolves, the heart reveals a smooth, balsamic labdanum intertwined with creamy tonka bean, adding a comforting warmth. The base settles into a refined leather, accompanied by a soft, woody oud that's less animalic and more akin to polished timber. It's a rich, seamless evolution reminiscent of a warm, spiced liqueur.
