Arabian Oud

Arabian Oud, also known as Oudh or Agarwood, is a fragrant resin found in the heartwood of Aquilaria trees, endemic to the dense forests of Southeast Asia, which also has a deep cultural significance in the Middle East. This resin forms as a response to infection by a specific type of mold. Oud has a distinctive, powerful, and rich fragrance. It is often described as warm and woody with hints of balsamic, smoky, amber, and musky undertones. These layers of complexity make it a sought-after ingredient in the world of perfumery. The rarity and labor-intensive process required to harvest and distill the resin contribute to its status as one of the most expensive perfume ingredients in the world. Arabian Oud integrates seamlessly with other scents to create sophisticated, luxurious blends popular in both traditional and contemporary fragrances. Its deep and resonant profile appeals to those who appreciate a mystique and intensity in their scent choices.
