Love Kills Oud

by Caroline Dumur

Masque Milano Love Kills Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Caroline Dumur. Love Kills Oud dries down to a base of Rose, Blackcurrant, Ambroxan, and Vanilla. Masque Milano's Love Kills Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This 'oud' is a bit of a misnomer, sparking serious debate amongst fragheads. It's a sweet, fruity rose that's undeniably addictive, but expect to pay a premium for a scent profile many compare to cheaper alternatives.

Its above-average longevity and good projection make it a bit much for the office. However, its sexy, addictive quality, described in reviews, screams date night, while the opulent nature suits formal events. It's too rich for casual daily wear or sport.

About

Love Kills Oud opens with a burst of fresh, almost tart blackcurrant and litchi, quickly giving way to a jammy, sweet rose. This isn't a grandma rose; it's vibrant and modern, underpinned by a dessert-like creaminess from vanilla and amber. Hints of woody cedar round out the base, while the promised oud remains elusive, contributing more to a subtle depth than a dominant presence.
