Swiss Arabian Private Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020. Private Oud settles into a heart of Vetiver, Jasmine, and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Dark Chocolate, Vanilla, and Caramel. Swiss Arabian's Private Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a love-it-or-hate-it gourmand oud, a rich dessert in a bottle that divides opinions sharply. Most find it a decadent chocolate-caramel treat, though some are put off by a 'screechy' or synthetic opening.

Given its strong scent profile and impressive longevity, Private Oud is best suited for evenings and special occasions where its rich gourmand accords can shine. It's too potent for an office environment and completely out of place for sport.

About

Opens with a sweet rush of dark chocolate and caramel, swiftly followed by a creamy vanilla. The oud here is understated, weaving through the gourmand notes rather than dominating, allowing a subtle elegance. Hints of jasmine and tonka bean add a touch of floral warmth and a smooth, mellow depth as it settles on the skin.
