Oud perfumes

Oudh, also known as agarwood, is a very precious and valued fragrance note in the perfume world. It is extracted from the resin of the agarwood tree (Aquilaria), which grows in certain parts of Asia, including India and Southeast Asia.

The scent of oudh is complex and deep, often described as woody, earthy, and rich. It also has sweet, spicy, and sometimes even smoky notes. Oudh is considered one of the most luxurious and long-lasting fragrance notes in perfumes, and it is often associated with exclusive, oriental fragrances.

Because extracting oudh is a labor-intensive process and the trees are scarce, it is one of the most expensive fragrant ingredients in the world. As a result, it is often associated with luxury, royalty, and prestigious perfumes.

Oudh is valued for its ability to give perfumes a long-lasting and enduring base. It has a unique chemical structure that allows the scent to develop and intensify over time. This makes oudh a popular choice for perfumes intended to evolve throughout the day.

The scent of oudh can vary depending on the origin and the specific distillation process. Some oudh oils have a sweeter, softer scent, while others are more intense and powerful. In perfumes, oudh is often combined with other fragrance notes to create complex, deep, and mysterious scent compositions.
