Oud

Leather opens crisp and tactile, a worn saddle warming in afternoon light. Damask rose enters with honeyed whisper, grounded by amber's resinous sweetness, before Oud by Aaron Terence Hughes settles into its animalic core—musk and animalic notes create an intimate, almost skin-like undertone while agarwood deepens into dark, woody smoke. Patchouli anchors the base with earthy minerality, the whole composition feeling lived-in, intimate, like approaching someone who has just come indoors.
