Black Oud

Kilian Black Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. Black Oud opens with Pink Pepper, Rose, Cardamom, and Geranium, and settles into a heart of Papyrus, Cedar, Methyl Pamplemousse, and Patchouli. Kilian's Black Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Kilian's Black Oud is a proper love-it-or-hate-it beast. It's potent, animalic, and definitely not for the uninitiated, but if you're into an intense oud experience, you'll be absolutely hooked.

About

This one kicks the door down with a spicy, slightly animalic oud, interwoven with pink pepper and rose. As it settles, the scent deepens into a rich, woody heart of papyrus and cedar, underpinned by an earthy patchouli. The dry down is a smoky, musky affair, where the oud softens into an intoxicating blend of resinous warmth and dark incense, creating a truly mysterious and seductive aura.
