Mancera Crazy For Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Pierre Montale. Crazy For Oud opens with Leather, Bergamot, and Oud, settles into a heart of Tiramisu, Patchouli, Rose, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Musk, Amber, and Oakmoss. Mancera's Crazy For Oud carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This isn't just Crazy for Oud by name, it's crazy by nature - a divisive, bold fragrance that some adore for its unique gourmand-oud blend, while others find it too subtle, too floral, or just plain weird. You'll either love it or wonder what all the fuss is about.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Crazy for Oud kicks off with a punch of leathery oud and zesty bergamot, quickly softening into a surprisingly lush and powdery heart. Rose, violet, and magnolia intertwine with the star of the show: a delectable tiramisu accord that adds an unexpected sweet gourmand twist. The base settles into a warm, inviting blend of vanilla, musky woods, and amber, grounded by earthy oakmoss.
