Details
Description
Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud, created by founder-perfumer Francis Kurkdjian and launched in 2012, is a rich, amber-woody interpretation of the ancient oud tradition built around agarwood sourced from Laos. Saffron and elemi open with a golden, spiced sparkle, moving into a cedarwood heart, before settling into a smooth, warm base of oud and patchouli. This listing is the full-size "Tester" bottle: identical juice, without retail packaging.
Scent Character
- Woody: 60%

- Fresh: 20%
Translation: a smooth, warm oud-and-cedar scent lifted by golden saffron, sensual and refined rather than sharp or medicinal, a modern, wearable take on traditional oud.
