Maksim Perfume Vanilla Oud is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Maxim Bortnikov. Vanilla Oud opens with Bergamot, Pepper, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Jasmin Sambac, Ylang-Ylang, Vanilla, and Apricot, and dries down to a base of Cambodian Oud, Oud, Birch Tar, and Labdanum. Maksim Perfume's Vanilla Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Vanilla and oud in one bottle, with apricot and birch tar adding fruit and smoke. It is sweet, dark and rich in equal measure. A good pick for anyone wanting a bold, smoky gourmand.

Composition

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.

About

Vanilla Oud opens with pepper, pink pepper and bergamot, a sharp and spicy start. The heart brings apricot, vanilla, ylang-ylang and jasmin sambac, fruity, creamy and floral. The base is Cambodian oud, oud, birch tar, benzoin, Peru balsam and labdanum, smoky and resinous. The result is a sweet, dark and warm oriental scent with plenty of depth.
