Agarwood

90 perfumes

Agarwood, or oud, originates from the resinous heartwood of Aquilaria trees, formed as a defense against fungal infection. Its olfactive profile is profoundly complex: leathery, animalic, woody, and balsamic, with subtle honeyed undertones. Primarily a base note, it provides unparalleled longevity and depth. In the Gulf, oud is a cultural cornerstone, often layered with Taif rose or saffron to create a majestic, opulent sillage that embodies hospitality, heritage, and the timeless luxury of Arabian perfumery traditions.
