Korloff Paris Royal Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Royal Oud opens with Rose, Nutmeg, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Amberwood. Korloff Paris's Royal Oud carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

This is a seriously good, affordable take on the traditional rose-oud combo. Forget the detractors, it's a classy scent that punches above its weight, particularly for those who prefer their oud without the barnyard funk.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

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.

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Royal Oud opens with a rich, smoky blend of rose and nutmeg, underpinned by a warm current of incense. The heart unfolds into a clean, woody oud, softened by amber and a hint of sweet vanilla in the drydown. It's a complex, evolving scent that balances floral delicacy with resinous depth and a subtle spicy edge.
