Oud Wood

$355.00

Oud Wood from 2007 remains the single most responsible fragrance for introducing a generation of Western wearers to oud as an everyday material rather than an occasion statement. Cardamom and rosewood ease you in, then oud and sandalwood form the central structure, amber and vetiver grounding everything without adding sweetness until tonka and vanilla arrive quietly at the end.

Why We Carry This

Richard Herpin's formula is the gateway niche oud: approachable enough for someone who has never worn oud before, and composed well enough that experienced wearers come back to it. Nineteen years on, it still holds its position.
