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

A truly polarising Mancera, Precious Oud swings from a 'skanky' initial hit to a 'scrumptious' gourmand Oud. Some call it an absolute banger, others a waste of money with an 'expired milk' smell. Definitely sample first, as this one is far from a safe blind buy.

Scent Profile

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.

Its strong projection and longevity, combined with its complex and often intense oud-gourmand profile, make it less suitable for office or sport. However, its unique and rich character, with boozy, sweet, and woody accords, makes it an excellent choice for dates and formal evening events.

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.

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

Precious Oud opens with a challenging, animalic burst of Oud and boozy whisky, sharpened by bergamot and a hint of leather. The heart unveils a complex gourmand twist, where sweet tiramisu mingles with creamy magnolia, powdery violet, and a soft rose. As it settles, a delicious base of vanilla, rich amber, and woody cedar emerges, softened by earthy oakmoss and sandalwood, creating a distinctive sweet woody-oud character.
