About

Oud Desire opens with a striking mix of solar notes and zesty lime, giving an immediate burst of freshness tempered by the spiciness of Sichuan pepper. As it settles, a heart of sumptuous rose, ethereal magnolia, and a hint of warm cardamom unfolds, creating a lush floral bouquet. The base is where this fragrance truly commands attention, merging deep, earthy oud with creamy sandalwood and an alluring musky essence. The addition of sweet vanilla and rich labdanum rounds out the scent, resulting in a captivating presence that lingers alluringly.
