About

Oud Essence is Perfume Parlour's budget take on Oud Elixir Precieux by Dior. It opens with Saffron, Bergamot, leads into a heart of Rose, Oud, and dries down to Oud, Amber. The overall character is oud with warm spicy and citrus facets. Rendered for value, it is a little simpler and quieter than the designer version, yet faithful to the core character and easy to reach for day to day.
