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.

About

Intense Oud opens with a sweet, slightly tart burst of grapefruit, quickly softened by the elegant, woody notes of rosewood and a hint of exotic saffron. As it settles, a smoky heart of guaiac wood and earthy vetiver emerges, paving the way for the star of the show: a warm, non-challenging oud. This isn't a barnyard oud; it's a smooth, sweet, and comforting woodiness that lingers gently.
