Perris Monte Carlo Oud Imperial is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Luca Maffei. Oud Imperial opens with Jasmine, settles into a heart of Caraway and Ebony, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Labdanum. Perris Monte Carlo's Oud Imperial carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Oud Imperial is intensely dark, woody, and uncompromising. It's a challenging, polarising wear, with some finding it a luxurious, refined take on oud and others put off by its dryness and medicinal or even 'motor oil' facets. Definitely one to test before buying a full bottle.

Also Works:
Date

Its potent projection and strong, dark accords make it unsuitable for office wear, where it might overwhelm colleagues. It excels in formal settings and evening dates, where its complexity and luxurious density can be fully appreciated. Not a casual or sport scent due to its heavy, serious nature.

About

Imagine stepping into an ancient, dimly lit sanctuary, rich with the scent of aged woods and resinous incense. This scent opens with a dry, almost camphorous oud, deepened by the warmth of caraway. As it develops, smoky labdanum and earthy patchouli emerge, creating a complex, austere heart. The dry-down is a symphony of vetiver, sandalwood, and cedar, leaving a lasting impression of robust, dark wood.
