Fragrance Du Bois Oud Rouge Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Guillaume Flavigny. Oud Rouge Intense opens with Lemon and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Oud. Fragrance Du Bois's Oud Rouge Intense carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is a serious contender if you like your woods peppery and polished. A richer, deeper, and more natural take on the 'Royal Oud DNA' means it's a firm upgrade for many, but the price tag makes it a luxury choice for the discerning.

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 Rouge Intense opens with a bright, spicy snap of pink pepper and a hint of bitter lemon, quickly transitioning into a heart of freshly cut cedar and creamy sandalwood. Earthy patchouli adds depth, while the drydown reveals a refined, non-medicinal oud that lends a subtle, smoky woodiness without dominating. It's a journey from sharp zest to a smooth, sophisticated woody base.
