The House of Oud 2016 Edp
Cypress Shade
The House of Oud Cypress Shade is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Cypress Shade opens with Star Anise, Bergamot, Lemon, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Mint, Mimosa, Petitgrain, and Coriander, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Cedar. The House of Oud's Cypress Shade carries an Acquired verdict, a aromatic-led wear.
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Cypress Shade promises a green, woody escape, but often delivers an unexpected ripe banana-like sweetness from the mimosa. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans calling it unique and fresh, while detractors find it strange or just a bit too fruity for their taste.

Best Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Best Occasions
Its subtle sillage and clean, fresh profile make it excellent for office, casual, and even sport wear without being intrusive. However, the unique and sometimes divisive mimosa note, combined with its generally subdued projection, makes it less suited for formal events or a stand-out date night.
