🌶️ Top Notes (Opening)
Sharp, spicy, and immediately commanding:
- Saffron — leathery, spicy, luxurious warmth
- Black Pepper — sharp, hot, aromatic spice
- Cumin — earthy, animalic, warm spice
The opening is intense, spicy, and slightly animalic, setting a bold tone right away.

🌲 Heart Notes (Mid)
Dark, woody, and resinous:
- Oud (Agarwood) — smoky, woody, slightly leathery
- Patchouli — earthy, resinous depth
- Cedarwood — dry, clean, woody backbone
The heart is deep, smoky, and woody, with oud taking centre stage in a raw, rugged style.

🌙 Base Notes (Dry‑down)
Warm, leathery, and long‑lasting:
- Amber — warm, resinous glow
- Leather — smooth, smoky, masculine
- Musk — soft, sensual, grounding
The dry‑down becomes warm, leathery, smoky, and resinous, with a strong oud‑amber presence.

Being upfront about the comparison
mean Woody Oud is our own original composition inspired by Fragrance Du Bois Rude Oud — it is not a clone or a replica, and no inspired-by fragrance is. What you get is the same unisex scent direction and note structure, blended by hand in the UK as a long-lasting Extrait de Parfum.
Worn side by side you would recognise the family resemblance straight away, and you would also notice differences in the opening and in how it settles on your skin. We think that is a fair trade at this price, but we would rather you know exactly what you are buying.
