A'Oud Ancienne

Rogue Perfumery A'Oud Ancienne is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. A'Oud Ancienne opens with Oud and Cypress, settles into a heart of Castoreum, Amyris, and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Almond, Ylang-Ylang, and Oakmoss. Rogue Perfumery's A'Oud Ancienne carries an Acquired verdict, a mossy-led wear.

This one's a proper challenge. A'Oud Ancienne is a divisive, full-on barnyard oud that isn't for the faint of heart, but those who 'get it' find it uniquely sexy and artful. If you're after a clean, westernised oud, steer clear, but if you appreciate unapologetic animalics, this could be your jam.

Date

Given its strong, animalic oud profile, A'Oud Ancienne is far too assertive for the office or formal events. It's best suited for cooler evenings, perhaps on a date where you want to make a bold, unforgettable statement, or an outdoor casual setting where its rough edges feel more at home.

About

A'Oud Ancienne opens with a blast of potent, earthy oud, backed by the green, resinous snap of cypress. As it settles, a raw, animalic growl from castoreum emerges, melding with the creamy, slightly woody depth of amyris and the warm, balsamic touch of labdanum. The dry-down reveals a powdery almond sweetness, a hint of tropical ylang-ylang, and the damp, earthy anchor of oakmoss, creating a complex, vintage-leaning leather and woody scent with enduring animalic allure.
