Fragrance Du Bois Oud Bleu Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Guillaume Flavigny. Oud Bleu Intense opens with Mandarin, Cardamom, and Nutmeg, settles into a heart of Amber, Labdanum, Myrrh, and Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Oud, Benzoin, Opoponax, and Styrax. Fragrance Du Bois's Oud Bleu Intense carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one is divisive, with some hailing it as a masterpiece of fresh oud, while others feel it's overpriced and lacks the promised intensity. Expect a beautiful, clean scent, but don't go in expecting a beast mode oud.

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.

Best For:

Also Works:
Formal

Its moderate sillage and clean, fresh profile make it suitable for office and casual wear without being overpowering. While elegant enough for dates, its subdued projection might leave some wanting more for formal events. It's too refined for sportswear.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

About

Oud Bleu Intense opens with a sparkling burst of mandarin, tempered by the warm, aromatic spice of cardamom and nutmeg. This vibrant introduction gracefully transitions into a heart of rich, balsamic amber, softened by the resinous depth of labdanum, myrrh, and frankincense. The dry-down reveals a subtle, well-integrated oud, woven with creamy benzoin and sweet opoponax, leaving a luxurious and clean trail.
