The Oud of the Ancients

$70.00

Some fragrances are created for a season.
Others feel as though they belong to another age.

The Oud of the Ancients is an ode to the timeless soul of Cambodian oud — deep, resinous, and quietly powerful. Its opening reveals the warmth of saffron and the delicate radiance of rose, before descending into a rich heart of aged oud and precious woods. As the fragrance settles, amber wraps the composition in a soft, glowing warmth, while the oud remains at its core — dark, textured, and enduring.

A fragrance inspired by what cannot be hurried: ancient forests, rare materials, and the passage of time.

It is not merely the scent of oud.

It is the memory of something that existed long before us.

A FRAGRANCE FROM ANOTHER AGE

  • For generations, agarwood has held a special place across Southeast Asia, valued for its deep, resinous aroma and its use in traditional incense, ceremony, and perfumery. Cambodia became particularly associated with oud, the fragrant resinous heart of agarwood, whose character can range from dark and woody to warm, sweet, and subtly animalic.

    Cambodian oud is often appreciated for its distinctive depth and complexity. Its aroma is shaped by the interaction between the agarwood tree and the resin that develops within it, creating a material whose character can evolve beautifully over time.

    For The Oud of the Ancients, we draw inspiration from this remarkable heritage and reinterpret Cambodian oud through a modern perfumer’s lens—allowing its profound woody character to meet rose, saffron, amber, and precious woods.
