The House of Oud The Time is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Cristian Calabrò. The Time opens with Bergamot, Chamomile, and Wormwood, settles into a heart of Iris and Lemon Verbena, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Tea. The House of Oud's The Time carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This is a gorgeous, understated tea scent that’s perfect for intimate wear. Shame about the wildly inconsistent performance reports - some rave about its longevity, while others can barely smell it for an hour. Still, if it works for you, it's a calm, fresh delight.

About

Imagine a serene ritual: bright, zesty bergamot and a soothing whisper of chamomile open the scene. Soon, a rich, aromatic tea note unfurls, blended elegantly with powdery iris and a clean, green hint of lemon verbena. The drydown settles into soft cedar and musk, leaving a refined, comforting aura that’s never loud but always present, for some anyway.
