Oud has been a prized fragrance for centuries. The anointing of this exquisite fragrance was preserved for the most exalted in society thanks to its value derived from its source as one of the most expensive woods in the world. Burnt as incense in mosques or daubed in scant drops as body oil, this heady scent has long been associated with luxury and opulence.

Once only the preserve of the nobility, however, skin care and luxuriant perfumes have become democratised and whereas it was once only those born into the highest echelons of society who had the time and financial wherewithal to spend on looking and smelling wonderful, it has become relatively easy for everyone to undertake their own skin-care routine.

‘Layering’ scented products enhances their appeal

Scents are no longer confined to concentrated bottled perfume. The best way to enhance the appeal of your favourite fragrance is through a process we call ‘layering’. The scent of oud is iconic and unique, and we have, with our Luxury Collection, created a range of products ideally suited to this luxurious grooming routine.

Our modern master perfumiers have adapted this highly distinctive scent and blended them for today’s world. Mixing with lighter, floral top notes, as well as vanilla, musk, rose and patchouli, amongst others, introduces an altogether different fragrance profile. And yet, the base note of oud is unmistakable and identifies its wearer as a connoisseur of taste and distinction.

Our sumptuous range of products enable our clients to envelop themselves in this distinctive, decadent essence, swathing the wearer in a warm, sensually scented cloud from morning till night. Not only does our Oud Luxury Collection offer traditional, exotic perfumes exquisitely presented in crystal or modern black glass bottles, but also a luxurious collection that ranges from body lotions and sprays to decadent hand and body washes and shower gels. Treat yourself or surprise a loved one with the gift of the Oud Luxury Collection.
