Maie Piou Oud Baguette is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Jean-Charles Sommerard. Oud Baguette opens with Saffron, settles into a heart of Ylang-Ylang and Bread, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha and Oud. Maie Piou's Oud Baguette carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

This is a seriously polarising scent, so don't expect it to be a crowd-pleaser. Oud Baguette is either a stroke of genius or a total disaster, depending on who you ask. You'll either love its bizarre charm or absolutely hate it.

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.

Also Works:
Date Casual

The strong, unique notes of oud and bread make this a bit too unconventional and potentially distracting for the office. It's more suited for casual evenings or dates where its unusual character can spark conversation rather than cause discomfort.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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

Oud Baguette opens with a bold, almost medicinal saffron, quickly joined by an unexpected, starchy warmth of fresh bread. This bready heart is softened by a touch of creamy, slightly exotic ylang-ylang, adding a surprising floral twist. The dry-down brings a deep, earthy oud and the smoky, leathery dryness of cypriol, grounding the eccentric top notes in a truly mysterious base.
