Purple Oud

UnisexBy François DemachyRated 4.1/5 · 837 reviews

orange · agarwood (oud) · pink pepper

Purple Oud opens on a citrus shimmer, then its heart unfolds around orange, agarwood and pink pepper. Saffron and warm spices lend a dense, enveloping presence. Wear it in winter or autumn, when the air cools and the trail of scent feels more intimate.
