Oud and Cashmere

2 perfumes

Oud and Cashmere creates a sophisticated bridge between the raw, animalic intensity of agarwood and the soft, tactile comfort of synthetic musks. Belonging to the woody-musky family, this accord balances the leathery, medicinal, and slightly smoky facets of oud with the velvety, powdery, and skin-like warmth of cashmere wood. It pairs naturally with saffron to amplify the spicy, metallic edge of the oud, or with rose to soften its darker, barnyard-leaning qualities. In the Gulf, this combination is a staple for evening wear, particularly during the cooler months when the scent’s heavy, resinous profile can fully bloom without becoming cloying. Arab houses frequently utilize this pairing to modernize traditional mukhallats, offering a smoother, more approachable transition for those who find pure oud oil too challenging for daily office settings.
