The Different Company Oud for Love is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Bertrand Duchaufour. Oud for Love opens with Caraway, Angelica, Whisky, and Saffron, and settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Iris, Tuberose, and Ylang-Ylang. The Different Company's Oud for Love carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

Don't let the name fool you - this ain't your grandad's barnyard oud. It's a smooth, sweet, and surprisingly wearable take on a challenging note, loved by many for its balanced complexity. Expect whispers of luxury, not shouts of animalic funk.

About

Opens with an intriguing, warm embrace of whisky and caraway, brightened by aldehydes and a hint of saffron. The heart unfolds gracefully into soft florals of iris and ylang-ylang, underpinned by creamy sandalwood and a touch of clove. The dry down settles into a powdery amber and caramel glow, with the oud playing a supporting, elegant role rather than dominating, creating a truly unique and appealing sweetness.
