SoOud Fatena is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013. Fatena opens with Pink Pepper, Ginger, Saffron, and Frankincense, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley, and Peach, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Woody Notes, Musk, and Leather. SoOud's Fatena carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

A truly polarising beast, Fatena is a spicy, leathery affair that divides opinion. If you like your oud dry and your saffron punchy, this is a must-try. Otherwise, proceed with caution.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its long-lasting and intense nature makes it less suitable for office wear where subtlety is key. However, its complex and intriguing character is perfect for date nights and formal occasions, garnering attention without being overwhelming.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Myroxylon Balsamum Pereirae Balsam Extract from Peru Balsam
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Fatena opens with a bold, almost aggressive hit of pink pepper, ginger, and saffron, softened ever so slightly by the mystical frankincense. It quickly dives into a complex heart where earthy patchouli mingles with the subtle sweetness of peach and caramel, and a delicate floral whisper of jasmine and lily of the valley. The dry down is where the true character emerges: a rich tapestry of leathery notes, dark oud, and various woods, all anchored by warm vanilla, labdanum, and benzoin, leaving a lasting, intense impression.
