Ramon Monegal Alhambra Oud is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Ramón Monegal. Alhambra Oud settles into a heart of Rose and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Birch and Ambroxan. Ramon Monegal's Alhambra Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a oud-led wear.

A divisive oud fragrance that some call a masterpiece, others a synthetic mess. It's a bold, beastly wear that's not for the faint of heart, but if you love fruit-tinged oud with monster projection, this is a must-try. Be warned, batches vary.

About

Alhambra Oud opens with a blast of potent oud, immediately softened by a juicy, sweet apple note that hints at raspberry. White florals, particularly jasmine and rose, weave through the heart, adding a touch of elegance before the birch and ambroxan kick in, giving it a woody, slightly smoky, and clean edge that some find appealing, others scratchy. The dominant oud and amber hold court from start to finish, projecting with serious intent.
