Perfume Parlour Oud Café is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Oud Café opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Coffee, settles into a heart of Rose and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Musk, Oud, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Perfume Parlour's Oud Café carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

A budget take on Kayali Oudgasm Café Oud 19. The dark-roast coffee opening warming into creamy oud and vanilla captures the original's cafe-meets-oud gourmand; this dupe loses some of the bitter-coffee depth and the EDP Intense's longevity, wearing softer and sweeter.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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 Café chases Kayali's Oudgasm Café Oud 19, the coffee entry in the cult oud collection. It opens with a rich cappuccino-coffee note, dark and faintly bitter, brightened by bergamot and mandarin - the freshly-brewed top the original is named for. The heart adds a soft floral lift of geranium and rose to keep the coffee from turning one-note. The drydown is its cosy heart: creamy oud rounded with white musk, sweet vanilla and earthy patchouli, intimate and a little alluring. Where the Kayali is an Eau de Parfum Intense that can run eight to ten hours with a deep coffee-and-oud drydown, this dupe keeps the coffee-oud story but reads sweeter and flatter, trimming the bitter dark-roast depth and the original's tenacity, settling closer to the skin sooner. It remains a cosy, sophisticated coffee-oud gourmand - warm, sweet and a touch mysterious - that suits cooler-weather evenings, an affordable budget stand-in for the Kayali.
