Pearl Fragrances Oud Ispahan is an Extrait de Parfum. Oud Ispahan opens with Labdanum, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Rose, and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Oud. Pearl Fragrances's Oud Ispahan carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Pearl Fragrances copies Dior Oud Ispahan's labdanum-and-rose signature, a note pairing reviewers say gives the original its distinctive character, but the oud in the base reads noticeably lighter than the luxurious original's dense trail.

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

Oud Ispahan follows Dior's own take on the rose-and-oud genre, part of the exclusive La Collection Privee line. This extrait opens with the same ambery, slightly leathery labdanum that reviewers say is what sets the original apart from countless other rose-oud blends on the market, before a plump Damascus rose takes over in the heart alongside saffron and patchouli. That rose-labdanum pairing is where the resemblance is strongest, since it defines the character of both versions. The base brings in oud, sandalwood and cedar, but where Dior's original is built to leave what the brand calls a powerful, opulent trail, this dupe keeps the oud much more restrained, landing closer to a soft rose-amber-wood scent than a bold, room-filling oud. It captures the accessible, contemporary-chic side of Oud Ispahan that some critics already feel is more polished than truly rugged, just at a much gentler volume and a fraction of the price.
