Saks New York Oud

Nutmeg and bergamot spark immediately with saffron's honeyed warmth, a spiced opening that feels almost edible. Palisander rosewood arrives next, woody and slightly sweet, threaded through with jasmine's creamy florality that softens the grain without overwhelming it. The base deepens gradually—amber and musk create a skin-like foundation, while agarwood brings its resinous, smoky character into the sweetness of vanilla. What settles is neither purely woody nor purely warm, but a burnished amber drydown where oud's quiet intensity lingers beneath a whisper of vanilla.
