UDV

Ulric de Varens UDV is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1993. UDV opens with Mint, Artemisia, Sage, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Vetiver, Galbanum, and Rosemary, and dries down to a base of Jasmine, Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Musk. Ulric de Varens's UDV carries a Statement verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

This 90s powerhouse is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a cheap, synthetic mess. But for others, it's a bold, masculine masterpiece that punches way above its weight.

Its strong, 'old-school' masculine character and potential for divisive reception make it less suitable for office or very formal settings. However, its bold projection and sensual undertones are perfect for dating, with some reviews pointing to it as a 'game-changer' for compliments.

About

A potent aromatic-woody blast, UDV opens with sharp lemon and tangerine, quickly met by a bracing herbal mix of mint, artemisia, and sage. The heart settles into earthy vetiver and green galbanum before deepening into a rich, mossy base of patchouli, oakmoss, and musk. Expect an unapologetically masculine scent with a clear vintage stamp.
