Star Oud

by Gaël Montero

Montblanc Star Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Gaël Montero. Star Oud settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Woody, Cinnamon, and Oud. Montblanc's Star Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This one's a divisive beast - you'll either adore its bold, smoky aura or find it utterly repulsive. Don't expect a crowd-pleaser, but if you're into edgy, challenging oud, this might just be your next obsession.

Its strong projection and unique, potentially challenging warm spicy-oud profile make it less suitable for office environments. However, its bold and luxurious character, with significant longevity, makes it an excellent choice for dates and formal events, particularly in cooler weather.

About

Star Oud bursts forth with an intense, warm spicy hit of cardamom and cinnamon, quickly followed by the rich, resinous depth of amber and a distinctly woody oud. As it settles, a smooth, creamy sandalwood emerges, grounding the challenging initial blast into a sophisticated, lingering warmth. It's unapologetically bold, with a complex, exotic character.
