Kajal Perfumes Paris The Whispering Oud is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2026, created by Sidonie Grandperret. The Whispering Oud opens with Sweet Pastry, Tobacco, and Dried Fruits, settles into a heart of Leather, Oud, Rose, and Honey, and dries down to a base of Musk, Tonka Bean, Peru Balsam, and Cotton Candy. Kajal Perfumes Paris's The Whispering Oud carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Seriously polarising, Whispering Oud is a sweet, leathery, and unapologetically bold beast. This one aims for maximum impact, not mass appeal, and if you can pull it off, you'll definitely be remembered. Not for the faint of heart, it’s a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent.

About

Imagine indulging in layers of sweet pastry and dried fruits, laced with a naughty whisper of tobacco - that's your opening. Then, a rich, dark leather accord emerges, entwined with deep, animalic oud and hints of honeyed rose. The finish melts into a musky, balsamic warmth, softened by creamy tonka and a playful puff of cotton candy, leaving a seriously sweet and enveloping trail. It's complex, a bit naughty, and undeniably intense, with a syrupy sweetness that lingers.
