Papyrus Oud 71

Name: Papyrus Oud 71 Eau de Parfum
Brand: Parle Moi de Parfum

Parle Moi de Parfum Papyrus Oud 71 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Michel Almairac. Papyrus Oud 71 opens with Artemisia, Lavender, Basil, and Ginger, settles into a heart of Geranium, Jasmine, Orris, and Sandalwood, and dries down to a base of Sage, Tonka Bean, Labdanum, and Leather. Parle Moi de Parfum's Papyrus Oud 71 carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is Michel Almairac's love letter to his own creation, the legendary Gucci Pour Homme (2003). It’s divisive; some say it perfects the original, others that the 'oud' note ruins it. Expect dry, woody, and intensely aromatic elegance, but know that some find the dry-down cloying.

About

Papyrus Oud 71 opens with an aromatic blast of lavender, basil, and fiery ginger, immediately setting a dry, almost papery tone. As it settles, a sophisticated heart of cedar and sandalwood emerges, intertwined with a powdery orris. The base deepens with earthy patchouli, frankincense, and a subtle amber warmth, creating a refined and complex woody-amber scent that whispers rather than shouts. The 'oud' remains elusive for most, manifesting as a dry, subtly bitter woodiness.
