A truly polarising oud. Some swear it's a masterpiece of modern perfumery, rich and deep, while others find its animalic opening too challenging or its performance disappointing for the price.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, plus a powerful animalic opening, this is not one for the office. It's best reserved for cooler weather and evening wear, making it a stellar choice for dates or formal events where its depth can truly shine.

About

Oud Seven opens with a bold, earthy hit of cypriol and a distinctive, animalic oud that gives way to a greener, more refined heart. Violet leaf cuts through the initial intensity, offering a cool, smooth contrast. As it settles, a warm base of amber, labdanum, and tobacco emerges, wrapping the lingering oud in a rich, resinous sweetness, underscored by the dry earthiness of vetiver and patchouli.
