Description
Oud in Acacia by Scents of Wood presents a deeply intoxicating and luxurious blend, where the rich, dark opulence of oud is beautifully illuminated. It opens with a delicate balance, showcasing a prominent rose note that flickers alongside an elegant golden thread of immortelle and orris. As it develops, a warm, unfading glow from immortelle irradiates a floral woody backbone of orris and modern amberwood, wrapping the oud in an incandescent, sophisticated embrace. The fragrance features a very adult vanilla note, avoiding anything sticky, and a soft, powdery iris that adds a touch of class. This is often recommended as an excellent starting point for those new to oud, offering a gorgeous scent that performs well in cooler weather. Perfumer: Yves Cassar
