by Anne Flipo

Our verdict on I Want Oud: Favourite

This isn't the oud beast you might expect from the name; it's a surprising, sweeter take on a classic. Some find it gorgeous and elegant, others are left wanting a more traditional oud. If you're after a tamer, sweeter oud, this could be your jam.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its elegant and feminine character makes it fitting for dates and formal occasions. The tempered oud ensures it's not too intrusive for office wear, but the warmth means it's perhaps a bit much for casual daytime.

About

Opens with a luscious blast of rose, brightened by spicy cardamom and a hint of exotic saffron. The heart unfolds into a warmer woody accord, spiced with nutmeg, moving away from a traditional heavy oud. The base is an accessible, slightly sweet oud tempered by balsamic benzoin and myrrh, creating a less aggressive, more rounded finish than some of its potent counterparts.
