Chris Collins Oud Galoré is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Nathalie Feisthauer. Oud Galoré opens with Cinnamon and Clove, settles into a heart of Rose, Iris, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Sandalwood, Oud, and Incense. Chris Collins's Oud Galoré carries an Acquired verdict, a spicy-led wear.

A divisive take on the classic rose-oud, this one's either a seductive masterpiece or a synthetic letdown, depending on who you ask. It aims for mass appeal but some find it lacks the authentic punch for its price point.

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

Oud Galoré opens with a warm, inviting spice, a blend of cinnamon and clove that immediately sets a rich tone. As it settles, a prominent, often jammy, rose emerges, softened by powdery iris and green geranium, creating a luxurious floral heart. The dry down is where the woods deepen, with smooth sandalwood and a non-animalic oud, rounded out by earthy cypriol and a smoky whisper of incense. It's a journey from spiced floral opulence to a woody, resinous embrace.
