Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Velvet Mood is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2026, created by Francis Kurkdjian. Oud Velvet Mood settles into a heart of Suede, Oud, and Peach. Maison Francis Kurkdjian's Oud Velvet Mood carries an Acquired verdict, a musky-led wear.

This one's a proper head-scratcher. Despite the name, some reckon it's less 'velvet oud' and more 'peachy rubber'. Don't expect a crowd-pleaser; this is a polarising scent that'll have folks either intrigued or running for the hills.

About

Imagine a smooth, dark oud, not dirty but polished, softened by a plush suede that feels almost animalic. A surprising splash of ripe, juicy peach cuts through the rich, leathery warmth, adding a touch of unexpected sweetness and a velvety texture. It settles into a musky, subtly powdery finish, maintaining its deep, enveloping character.
