The Gate Fragrances Paris 2025 Extrait

U ££ Acquired

Under Oud

The Gate Fragrances Paris Under Oud is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Valérie Garnuch-Mentzel. Under Oud opens with Geranium, Pepper, Frankincense, and Plum, settles into a heart of Cedar, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Musk, Oud, Guaiac Wood, and Oakmoss. The Gate Fragrances Paris's Under Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Seriously, this isn't for the faint-hearted. It's a bold, unapologetic oud that demands attention - you'll either love its dark, complex embrace or recoil in horror. Divisive, for sure.

About

Under Oud bursts open with a striking frankincense and spicy pepper hit, tempered by a rich, jammy plum and hints of aromatic geranium. As it settles, a robust heart of cedar and sandalwood emerges, deepened by earthy vetiver and patchouli, with a smoky whisper of fir resin and a leathery saffron warmth. The dry down is an absolute powerhouse: animalic castoreum and deep oud melt into guaiac wood, softened by a creamy vanilla and tonka, all underpinned by sensual musk and a mossy depth.
