Oud - Perfume

A sensual wood wrapped in an intense rose, reminiscent of desert kohl.





What is oud?


Oud is the fragrant resin produced by certain trees of the Aquilaria genus to protect themselves from the spread of a fungus, Philiaphora Parasitica. Used in India and the Arabian Peninsula since ancient times, oud appears in the Bible as a funerary perfume, while in China, this "eaglewood" is used in traditional medicine to activate qi circulation. Today, threatened by overexploitation, its cultivation, sale, and use are strictly regulated, and the oud we use is certified by CITES, ensuring that its production and sale do not harm biodiversity conservation and are based on sustainable use of wild species.
