The Gate Fragrances Paris Pure Oudiction is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Valérie Garnuch-Mentzel. Pure Oudiction opens with Mate, Cardamom, Sage, and Cannabis, settles into a heart of Suede, Licorice, Hay, and Fir Resin, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vetiver, Oud, and Patchouli. The Gate Fragrances Paris's Pure Oudiction carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a proper head-turner, alright. Pure Oudiction delivers a bold, green, and slightly illicit vibe that certainly isn't for shrinking violets. Definitely takes a certain confidence to pull off, but it'll get you noticed.

About

Pure Oudiction kicks off with an unusual, herbaceous blast of mate, sage, and a distinct cannabis note that's green rather than smoky. This intriguing opening settles into a leathery heart of suede and dry hay, with a touch of sweet, earthy liquorice. The base grounds it all with a robust trio of woody oud, damp patchouli, and earthy vetiver, creating a fragrance that feels both ancient and utterly modern, with a lingering warmth.
