Houbigant 2023 EDP
Oud Or
by Antoine Lie , Luca Maffei
Houbigant Oud Or is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Antoine Lie and Luca Maffei. Oud Or opens with Orange Blossom, Rose, and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Geranium, Saffron, and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Oud, Guaiac Wood, and Vanilla. Houbigant's Oud Or carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.
This oud-rose-raspberry blend is a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a sublime, woody-spicy oud, others smell 'glue' or find it surprisingly weak. It's a modern take on a classic, but don't expect it to break new ground.
