The House of Oud Breath Of The Infinite is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Breath Of The Infinite opens with Peony and Freesia, settles into a heart of Peach, and dries down to a base of Musk, Ambroxan, and Cashmeran. The House of Oud's Breath Of The Infinite carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one's a proper enigma. 'Breath Of The Infinite' is either a beautiful, ethereal peach musk or 'literally nothing' - and there's not much in-between. Prepare for a skin chemistry lottery, but if it hits, it's unlike anything else.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its often subtle projection and clean musk-forward profile make it suitable for casual wear or even the office, though it might be undetectable to some. While its uniqueness could work for a date, the divisive nature makes it a risk, and it lacks the gravitas for formal events.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with delicate freesia and peony, a whisper of spring leading into a surprisingly creamy, slightly powdery peach heart. The base settles into a sophisticated blend of cashmeran, musk, and ambroxan, creating a 'my skin but better' aura that's both clean and captivating, though sometimes leaning into a unique, almost lactonic or mineralic territory.
