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.

With enormous sillage and a dense, luxurious character, this is far too powerful for an office setting or casual wear. It truly shines on special occasions and dates, projecting an air of opulence and intrigue.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

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

About

Eternal Oud opens with a commanding, almost raw Indian oud that immediately conjures images of ancient souks and distant lands. Soon, a rich, dark rose unfurls, not sweet or powdery, but velvety and deep, melding seamlessly with the woody core. A whisper of spicy saffron adds further complexity, lending an exotic, leathery undertone that grounds the entire composition, creating a scent that's both opulent and deeply mysterious.
