Wild Aoud

by Pierre Montale

Montale Wild Aoud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009, created by Pierre Montale. Wild Aoud settles into a heart of Oud, Geranium, Tobacco, and Bergamot. Montale's Wild Aoud carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh spicy-led wear.

This one's a proper divisive Montale; folks either adore its fresh, earthy complexity or find it utterly underwhelming. Don't let the name fool you into expecting a monster oud-it's far more nuanced, if a touch inconsistent in performance for some.

About

Wild Aoud opens with a brisk, almost medicinal freshness of bergamot and artemisia, quickly met by a vibrant geranium. This briskness then leads into a deep, earthy heart where teak wood and a subdued oud blend with the smoky warmth of tobacco and the rich, slightly sweet depth of amber and patchouli, creating a complex, evolving scent profile.
