Franck Olivier 2014 EDP
Oud Touch
Franck Olivier Oud Touch is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. Oud Touch opens with Orange, Raspberry, and Caramel, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Rose, Jasmine, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Franck Olivier's Oud Touch carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, Oud Touch is a beastly performer that belies its bargain price. Expect an intense, polarising experience - not for the faint of heart or nose.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Best Occasions
Its beast-mode projection and longevity make it completely unsuitable for the office, risking offending colleagues. It shines brightest in formal or date night settings due to its bold, luxurious character, but should be sprayed sparingly. Casual wear is possible, especially outdoors in cooler weather, but it's not an everyday, low-key scent.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this
