Swiss Arabian Oud 01 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Miroslav Petkov. Oud 01 opens with Violet Leaf, Cumin, and Raspberry, and settles into a heart of Rose, Lily of the Valley, and Cardamom. Swiss Arabian's Oud 01 carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a divisive beast. Expect a challenging, animalic opening with hints of 'mothball' and 'body odour', but those who persevere (and macerate) are rewarded with a richly complex, smooth oud-rose-raspberry experience. Not a blind buy, mind.

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.

Given its strong projection and significant longevity, Oud 01 is better suited for evening and intimate settings than the office. The rich oud, rose, and leather accords lend themselves well to special occasions where you want to make an impression.

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.

About

Oud 01 kicks off with a startling blend of tart raspberry and violet leaf, underpinned by a notable cumin note that gives it an almost salty-skin, raw edge. As the initial intensity mellows, a sophisticated heart of rich rose and spicy cardamom emerges. The dry down is a smooth, clean oud, not skanky at all, complimented by soft leather and a lingering amber warmth.
