    Description

    Scents of Wood's Oud in Acacia candle offers a captivating interplay of light and shadow, where the deep, smoky character of oud is beautifully brightened. It opens with a delicate touch of orange flower, leading into a heart where the powdery elegance of orris and the unique, honeyed facets of immortelle truly shine. This sophisticated blend is further enriched by hints of rose and carrot, creating a nuanced floral-woody experience. As it settles, the warmth of Virginia cedar, amberwood, and vanilla provides a comforting and luxurious finish, making it a perfect choice for creating an inviting atmosphere. Perfumer: Yves Cassar
